Sergey brought the cubs to his suburban acreage on the outskirts of Ozersk. He helped a local tradesman construct a sturdy cage from rebar to contain the cubs until he could find a more suitable home for them.
After some time he found a good home for one of the cubs, but only received offers to purchase the other from a bait station. These stations are known to use live animals to teach hunting dogs how to pursue them and are known for terrible and abusive conditions. Sergey couldn’t bring himself to sell the cub to the station and decided he could raise it himself. He named the cub Grumbler because it constantly growled and displayed a hostile disposition.
For the following four years Sergey took Grumbler on leashed walks around the property, played with him and fed the rapidly growing bear. Grumbler grew up alongside Sergey's son who was born a short time after Sergey found the cub. Grumbler also had three dogs that shared the property with him.
As Grumbler grew he began to exert himself with Sergey. At one point he attacked the man and injured him, but Sergey didn’t take the attack seriously. His family and friends advised him to find a new home for the bear, but he had grown attached to Grumbler, even though he was aggressive at times.
On December 18th, 2018, Sergey was invited to his neighbor's house for tea. Grumbler was left locked in his cage and it seemed like an ordinary day. One curious fact about a captive bear is that they can’t hibernate like they do in nature. Normally they would find a sheltered bit of ground and excavate a den to sleep in the winter, but in a cage, they cannot do this.
After departing his neighbor's house, Sergey’s whereabouts could not be accounted for for a few hours. His family tried to call him on his cell phone but he did not pick up. They decided to stop by his house just to see if he was ok.
Upon arriving at Sergey’s house, his relatives could see Grumbler running around the property but could find no trace of Sergey. They let their dog out of the car as they began searching for him on foot. Grumbler decided he didn’t like the unannounced guests and began to aggressively move toward them. Their dog intervened which allowed them a few seconds to escape the bear and get back into their vehicle.
Sergey’s relatives waited inside their car after notifying police of Grumbler's bizarre behavior. Upon arriving at Sergey’s residence the police began a ground search to investigate what was going on.
While walking the property, the police found a blood trail in the snow. The signs at the scene were ominous but they hadn’t found conclusive proof of any significant crime or accident.
A short distance into the search they found the relative’s dog that had protected the family from Grumbler a short time prior. The dog had been largely consumed and its carcass was eaten down to the bone.
This alarming scene only provided the police officers with concern for Sergey’s whereabouts and condition. They knew that the evidence they had found so far was foreboding and pointed to a tragic series of events.
As they searched the remainder of Sergey’s property, the police noticed that the other two of the three family dogs were running around the property. That is when they discovered a second dog carcass which was also largely consumed.
Now fully aware that there was more to Sergey’s case than meets the eye, they continued their search for the man. Near Grumblers cage they stumbled upon a horrific site.
Sergey’s corpse was discovered lying in an isolated corner of his acreage. He had been partially consumed and the only culprit the officers could find was Grumbler. Now Russian police officers don’t go to investigations entirely unprepared. They typically carry an MP-443 Grach, which is chambered in 9 MM and is a semiauto setup.
Upon finding Sergey’s corpse the police ran into Grumbler. The bear was acting erratically and aggressively toward the officers. It was like he was protecting his kill and possibly thinking of making the officers his next food cache.
An unspecified number of police officers opened up on Grumbler with their Grach’s and dispatched him before he could kill and eat any more dogs or people.
Following dispatching Grumbler, the police issued a public statement indicating that the bear no longer posed a threat to citizen's lives or health. While investigating the premises they noticed Grumbler’s cage was now open somehow, which allowed him to menace his friend and owner Sergey.

Bears are not pets!
I agree with you all the way ,they are beautiful but they are wild animals and this poor man had several warnings its still a very sad sad story ,I know in Russia there are alot of people that have cougars as pets and bears also because I follow some of the cougar ones because I absolutely love the big cats.
They don't have a pack structure in the wild, so it's basically like having a cat. A cat big enough to murder you without even trying if you pet it and it wants to be left alone
No shit.
No need to over analyze this one. The bear was hungry period. He didn't even have to hunt. His got his meal delivered.
True. They can be trained, to a degree, by professionals who know what they are doing. And some of them can seem very tame, the key word being 'seem', but this guy was not a professional and was clearly winging it on a false sense of confidence. This was a case of when, not if.
What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger. Except bears. Bears kill you.
You might take a bear out of the wild- but you can't take the wild out of a bear.
Bears are not our friends. This reminds me of the guy who got a baby hippo, he named Humphrey, and raised it to an adult. He would swim and play with the hippo, until one day he jumped into the water with it to play and it killed him.
I really do my best not to victim blame, but hippos are known for being insanely aggressive!
Yep. Just because they won't eat you doesn't mean they won't happily kill you. In the US, beware of moose, elk, cattle, ...
@@bhami you left out "Other people". They present 100x more danger than any wild or domestic animals. Even in remote national parks more people are killed by other people of bears.
I think Grumbler was behaving so aggressively because, he was a bear.
Compelling theory
And underfed
@@AdventureswithChangewho would have thought!!!
@@letsgobrandon6281 😂
The bear woke up one day and realized he was the top predator.
He realized he was a bear like you said a top if not the top predator and started doing bear s**t
Malnutritioned and frustrated from not being able to hibernate. Bear was hungry.
If you want to be eaten by a bear that's fine, but don't put kids at risk. That should be a crime.
It's Russia, the government there really doesn't care.
Grumbler had exhibited aggressive behavior as a cub, so that was a first sign. This on and off aggressiveness continued and would have made me, as his owner, very nervous. People often get used to questionable behaviors in their pets, but because of the closeness between them pay little attention to it. Bears, however, make lousy pets and are notoriously unpredictable at the best of times. Grumbler had danger written all over him, and his instincts and probably his captivity caught up with him as an adult animal. Sadly when he unexpectedly got loose, he did what bears do,…he hunted down some food.
I'm kind of curious now about what time of year he would start showing aggression as a cub, think it was around the time he should have been hibernating then to?
I was thinking the same thing. He missed several big flashing warning signs & paid for it with his life.
Predictable. Bears eat each other sometimes and yes, he wasn't able to hibernate and was probably terribly hungry due to biology. Add to that he was probably frustrated and didn't understand why he felt that way. Bears are individuals, so one might never eat their human caretaker or another bear while another will.
I agree, because of the hibernation thing and associated issues, I believe he was frustrated. That, in addition to his normally grumpy disposition...
It sounds to me like "Grumbler" was a ticking time bomb.
Individuals 😂
@@ChrisDaAce27 Not sure why that's funny. A scientist will tell you even honey bees can be individuals. Animals have personalities, thoughts and feelings, they aren't machines.
This is Russia. There are literally hundreds of Russians in remote areas with bear pets or bears that frequent their camps. They don't make the headlines because it is not news worthy.
This guy killed the bear's mother in front of him, separated him from his sibling and only remaining companion, kept him in chains or locked in a small, featureless cage, had dogs who no doubt harassed him, and didn't feed him enough. This guy was not his "friend".
I raised a bull calf from 80lbs to 1,800lbs. He followed me like a dog, came when he was called, loved to have his ears scratched. He attacked and almost killed me one day. The moral of this story and the video: just because you raised an animal, does not mean they will not turn on you one day.
Isn't the same true for humans?
@@josephshields2922 No guarantees in life.
Wow, that's terrible, hope your ok now
The bear was not getting enough to eat.
@@chaplainsoffice6907 i thought the same.
There was a North American brown bear named "Bart the Bear" raised from a cub by a professional animal trainer named Doug Seus. Bart had a career as a movie actor and died of cancer at age 23. To my knowledge he never attacked Doug and was trusted to interact with strangers on movie sets. Two factors come to mind: first, Doug had more experience training animals than Sergey. Second, bears are individuals and Grumbler just may have been inherently a more aggressive animal than Bart.
Not being able to hibernate meant that Grumbler would need a lot more calories. He was eating every "body" in sight!
Bear was hungry (not enough food) and angry (no hibernation). This was a tragedy waiting to happen.
Yep, maybe if he had more territory to feed.
Grumbler had telegraphed to Sergey, that he was aggressive & Sergey *_ignored_*_ the warning_ Dogs are *known* to be friendly with humans, or at least to a specific family. But even when it came to dogs. IF a dog, displayed "personality issues" .... ya don't KEEP a problem-dog *in the family* That is only asking for trouble. Yes, bears have been "Friendly" and maybe even GOOD "Friends" with humans. *Grumbler was NOT a "happy" pet* this story ended as expected, he'd already attacked Sergey once.
First mistake he thought raising a wild animal was great then he got the big head thinking he was safe
Bears are NOT domesticated.
It really doesn't matter if you raised them, any animal that doesn't come from generations of domestication will be unpredictable. Their wild instincts are too strong even if they never lived in the wild. Think about the famous animal trainers Sigfried and Roy. If I'm not mistaken, Roy Horn was attacked by a tiger he had raised from the time it was a cub. They aren't cute or cuddly like cats and dogs.
There is NOTHING wrong with saving orphan cubs and finding them a suitable home-that is the ethical thing to do as otherwise they will die. But that is not what happened here. Sergio had no experience raising bears and obviously did not treat Grumbler well-his cage was too small and he apparently was not fed enough. Also, bears are individuals. The Kodiak bear "Bart" lived with his trainer for 20 years and starred in many movies without showing aggression. Other "trained" bears have been aggressive. Grizzly Adams died from injuries he received from one of the bears he raised and exhibited.
A Bear's gonna Bear. Whaddya gonna do?
Grumbler may have been in a state of hyperphasia, a state of constant hunger, which bears undergo before hibernation.
*Hyperphagia
I think the man had no idea how to raise a bear like me most people don't😎
He was warned by the first attack....
I know I get grumpy when I don’t hibernate.
I mean... it's a bear. RIP.
I can think of several reasons why. I wonder if he was being fed enough? He killed and ate the man and the one dog immediately after killing it. That's not just aggressive, but hungry.
He was a male bear who needed to dominate a territory. Wild animals are just THAT. WILD WILD WILD. 😮
He was pissed off because he had been locked up his whole life. I don't blame him.
I think 🤔 the brown bear 🐻 was aggressive because it needed freedom. Sad😢 it killed its owner he paid with his life. U can take the animal out of the wild, but u can't take the wild out of them they are hunters.
The bear was in an outdoor enclosure in his native habitat. His body went into hyperphagia to prepare for hibernation. He was trying to eat everything in sight.
He should’ve thought twice before naming a bear grumbler. As the name implies! He was hungry
You can raise them from a cub, but a wild animal is still a wild animal.
Thank you for another outstanding video!! Always so interesting! This outcome was totally predictable. Bears are wild animals, not pets!! He was showing signs of aggression from the beginning, so why on earth didn't this guy take heed? Plus he had an innocent kid and dogs he put at risk! Yikes!!! How stupid! Again, thanks for the great story! 🌹
Just one word - hyperphagia.
Maybe he did kill grumbler’s mother and he finally got his revenge!😮
Good point! I never thought of the revenge angle.
Fact🗣️
I don't think it's a coincidence that the bear couldn't hibernate and the fact it partially consumed every kill. He probably completely messed up the bear's season-based hunger system and left it highly stressed from being unable to act on its instincts. He failed to meet the bear's needs, and a brown bear you share space with is not something you want to fail to provide with its needs. Like how no one has been killed by a wild orca, but orcas in captivity have famously killed several people. Their needs weren't met so they acted out, and they're dangerous enough to kill us with ease. They don't even need to completely lose it
Luv me some Scary Bear Attack stories. Always anxious for the next one. Doing well on the quizzes but blew a few. 🐾🤔
Sounds like the bear was very hungry
The bear was showing aggression as a cub. It was very foolish to think a cub like that wouldn't be a danger when he grew.
That sounds about right
that bear saw it's mother killed,he just got his revenge
So unfortunate. There’s no telling what not being able to hibernate does to these creatures. I don’t see how this could be blamed on the bear, it’s just sad for all involved. 😢
Mess with a bear & you'll get the fangs ...
Animals are as diverse as people. One bear might never attack you. The next one very well could. It isn't worth the risk.
How do you not see that coming from a mile away?
The bear had a sour disposition as a cub and it only got worse into adulthood. He was bound to hurt someone, unfortunately it was the one who loved him most. 😢😢😢
Bears don't belong in cages. And just like a lion and other wild animals, you can raise them all you want, but you can't take the wild out of them! They belong in the wild. The dogs probably stressed the bear out even more .
They get hungry too
Imagine that! A Bear being a bear...
I sure do wish I hadn’t seen this. It’s just too heartbreaking for me.
I’m going to skip this one and I look forward to the next. Have a beautiful day.
Lol
Tragic but predictable.
Predictable
Do not keep bears!
How dare I forgot to say this was a spectacular episode and storytelling Addicus!!! Thank you so much!! I'm so attached to Steph's cat Mongo now he's so precious!! Gonna cat sit for her when she's at work tomorrow He was following me everywhere so cute!!! Good night Addicus and everyone 💤💤💤🌟
A bear acting like a bear.
Bonjour de France .
Il y toujours un facteur x avec les animaux féroces, vous pouvez les dompté , les nourrir pendant des années mais un jour il peuvent bifurqué et vous voir juste comme une simple proie!
i can only imagine the conditions this bear lived in. rural russia and a 'professional' hunter? its not like he was hand raised in a well kept nurturing environ. There are folks who have raised bears and done well but its pretty damn rare. left in a small unkept cage is not what any wild predator does well with.
Poor dogs. Poor bear.
Humans always think animals love and develop feelings for us the way we love animals. A dangerous way to think. Those poor doggies. 😢
good video
For the Bear to eat 2 large dogs and Sergey I would say the bear was very hungry and not being feed enough.
Grumbler was just being a bear, doing what bears do. Predictable.
THey aren't made for being anywhere near people. They are made to be in the wilderness and do what they do to survive.
Bears, like people, have their own personality. This bear exhibited aggressiveness at an early age, hence the name "Grumbler". Bears have long memories. Maybe he saw his mother killed by a human, perhaps even by the man that adopted him. We will never know. One thing we can know, it is never a good idea to adopt an apex predator.
Poor dog
I know. There was no reason for them to get out of the car at all.
The closet wild animal i have seen raised is a racoon. When it got fully grown and was becoming mean, it was a nightly visitor to their open shop to eat the dogs food left out at night and within six months, he stopped coming around altogether. I can't wrap my head around raising a bear lol
Sounds like the bear was very very hungry
And often times I see people with pet bears and I’m like JUST HOW?! And then I’m like just one day…..
you often see pet bears? do you live in Russia? It is illegal in the US
@@CastleMcI assume on RUclips.
As to animal attacks. I have been shooting since I was 7 years old and started hunting when I was 10 years old. Practiced my shooter skills at least twice a week for most of my life, this with air rifles/pistols and powder guns. When I was around 11 years old, while on vacation with my family, I was (best way to describe it) side-swiped by a pissed-off approximately 300lb Black Bear. He was trying to escape/fleeing a beating by a camp Guide/Wrangler wielding a foreshortened Louisville-Slugger baseball bat. This happened while the Bear was trying to steal some BBQ prime ribs from a table at a group pick-nick on a lake inundated mountain that formed an island. This cook-out was provided by a Lodge we were staying at in the Fontana Dam/Lake wilderness area near/in the Smokey Mountains region, circa 1960. I was not badly injured that day, but I learned a very valuable lesson, was somewhat traumatized and cautioned for life. That day I did not even have a Cub-Scout pocket knife on me. Now days I have weapons on me at nearly all times when in anything resembling wilderness conditions, including my own forested retirement property in the Appalachian Mountain foothills.
He didn't really use that kind of slide latch? A kitten can open that. My Dad built my brother and I a "busy box" when we were toddlers. It had slide latches, a telephone dial, phone, and cord, something that buzzed and lit up, all kinds of mechanical devices from simple to slightly challenging. The slide latch as I remember was so insecure it would open on its own.
Rather than Grisley Adams, it looks like Sergia took his cues from Timothy Treadwell.
It is intriguing to consider the lack of hibernating for a bear may contribute to its aggression. Early signs about this bear’s potential danger were there.
He killed the mother and the cub saw it and never forgot it
He sounds like he was hungry, killed, and consumed the same day?
Some people are born bad, and I truly believe that some animals are also born bad.
Some are great.
(sigh) When will people learn
We have this.....obligation (?) to caretake baby wild animals when they're abandoned, or their moms are killed,etc etc. We've lost our collective minds!! Let nature have it's way ,& leave the deer, bears, gators,& every other wild animal exactly where u found them.
In the words of German nature documentarian of the film "Grizzly Man", Werner Herzog, " "I believe the common denominator of the universe is not harmony, but chaos, hostility and murder."
On the approach to annual hibernation bears become eating machines, their appetite is in overdrive. That’s the number one reason why the bear killed and ate dogs, humans or whatever else he could get
it’s sad for grumbler
A wild animal is a wild animal. There is NEVER an assurance that the call of the wild natural nature of an animal will not emerge, no matter how loved and domesticated they seem. They may never attack, BUT the possibility and risk is always there. IMO he should have released Grumbler, far away from his house, as soon as he was old enough to care for himself. Sad story all around.
Reminds me of the story of the scorpion and the frog.
Bears are Bears.
Grumbler was feeling Hungry and Grumpy!
He realised he was a Bear and not a hamster in a cage so wanted out,
Bears are so incredibly intelligent that if Sergei (sp?) had indeed killed the Mother Bear originally, the cubs would not forget and hold Sergei responsible , tho most likely a Life of captivity for the cubs caused them to become angry and aggressive toward their captor.
Just being a Bear. 🐻
Humans seperated from their familys and raised in a cage will lose it let alone bears
Bear 1- stupid human 0.
6:22 What in the HECK is THAT?!👀
😎🤯🤷🏻♂️
I think the answer to all of your questions is; possibly. Wild animals are just that. Wild. It seems to me it would take many decades if not centuries to turn brown bears into docile family pets. Actually I don’t think any animal meant to live in the wild should be made to live domestically. As humans we are selfish to think they would be happier and safer with us. Look at this poor bear. He didn’t deserve this.
I think he grumbled because he was an Alfa male bear and did not like humans.
What caused the attack was the simple fact that it was a grizzly bear.
SAVE THE BEARS!!❤🦁🫀🫁🦶👀🧠🦵🦴🫁🫀🦵🦶🧠🦁❤❤!!
Something tells me grumbler remembered Sergei killing its mother... That's my thought because I also understand brown bears can be tamed but not if one remembers what you did to its mother
IMO, the reason for the attack is you have a BEAR and a bunch of silly sausages running around. The BEAR got the silly sausages.
Tragic ... He was compassionate toward the animal and lost his life. The bear attacked him and was aggressive all of which were warning signs Sergey did not heed.
I think it’s pretty obvious that if was just a wild bear doing wild bear shit.
The bear likely got ahold of a Stephen King novel.
Did he feed it enough,did he exercise it enough? There has been many successful cases where bears has become a part of a human family. There are not enough details here to know if growler was mistreated or just didn’t ever become “ humanized “
Many, many people have died by Bears, and other strong ones, also. If animals are huge and show anger, be ware!
My guess is that the bear was underfed, probably low in body weight due constant under feeding, combined with the time of year and the urge to fill up before hibernation resulted in the bear feeding on him
