Very cool. I have never seen a vid like this before. Kinda comical too! Yawning. Scratching. Stretching. He looked like he was doing bear yoga lol! Thankyou. 🐾🐗
This was a really great video. Thank you for taking the time to put it together. What a silky looking boy! I know how he feels too. After a long week at work I sometimes fall asleep on Friday evening only to wake up Saturday evening to eat and go straight to bed until Sunday. It takes a while to remobilize myself. It's a slow process getting up and doing something then going back to bed for a bit, over and over. I can't imagine trying to get up after an entire winter!
Vinnie, I never could get my trailcam to work. Whatever happened to on off record & photo buttons clearly marked. I lost the instructions if that's what they were supposed to be.😣
Judy Johnsen could’ve just stumbled into a branch and got it in the eye doesn’t have to be a fight, you’d likely see more scars on his face if it was a fight
This is by far the best footage I've ever seen! Awesome thanks for sharing . I live in Rhode Island and we are seeing more black bear sightings on the news I hope I get so lucky enough to see one in person lol from a far that is.
This video is fascinating; I really appreciate the up-close footage & descriptive narration. I’ve become entranced with the black bear ever since I found out a wayward bear was in my neighborhood. I think they are so beautiful & cute but must remember they are wild animals. Anyways, thanks once again for this educational video.
.........I will not forget that bear, and your very interesting narration. A glimpse into a bear coming out of hibernation...watching your vid was worth more than a two hour nat geo. Thank you!
This honestly was so cool. I’ve grown up in Alaska my entire life. Been around many black and grizzly bears. Had no clue it took them a while to get out but it obviously makes sense! And holy cow that’s a HUGE black bear. Especially being that he was looking that big after hibernation. I’ve seen some scrawny bears in the spring time.
Thank you for sharing. This truly is amazing video. I had no idea that waking from a hibernation was such a struggle for bears. Be kind to wildlife, staying alive is not easy for them.
Rob Bobcat I thought he or she would be thinner too. So when I see one in the wilderness, can't' really tell if it is well fed or really hungry. Yikes. Met a mom and a little cub once, but they were just on the trail ahead of me sniffing around, got some water and came back, jumped around on a fallen log. I managed to get some pictures while keeping an eye out for any other cubs, and trying to make sure the other 9 people in my hiking party didn't scare them away. So the sleep 4 months and spend another month waking up? Don't the females give birth in the dens? Good thing it didn't collapse while he was sleeping.
Someone in a bear sanctuary recently told us that bears don't actually loose very much (if any) weight during the hibernation. They only loose a lot after they woke up because food is hard to come by in spring. And it takes a while until they find enough to maintain their weight.
I thought of that, too. But they also don't hibernate as long as brown bears in much colder climates. They start denning in October and don't come out till spring. That's gives them more time to lose fat.
I found this video very interesting and I learned a lot. Thank you for posting. I've never hunted black bears and have only seen a handful of them while deer hunting. They truly are beautiful creatures. Thanks again for the lovely video 😘.
The bear looked a lot better when he returned after being gone for some days. His coat looked a lt better. It was shiny and fuller. Mayber he had a swim somewhere? Thanks for such a great video! 🙂❤🐻
That was so cool I think for the most part people think they just kind of wander out and then that's it and they go off but it's a process that's really awesome
WOW! Very neat video! I never knew they were so weak waking up. Makes sense when you think about it. A few years ago, I found a bear with cubs in a den. Just a big cave like crack in the rocks. It came out to the edge and looked around, then went back inside. I didn't see the cub(s) until I blew up the video on a bigger screen. Later, I went inside the den to see what it looked like.....not much, just some Mullen leaves brought in for bedding. I have a video on it here on You tube.
Black bears come in black (standard), brown ("cinnamon bears"), white ("spirit bear), and gray-blue ("glacier bear"). The far east Asian subspecies of brown bear from eastern Russia and northern China can be nearly black in colour.
John Smith I’d have bear mace first. Black Bears it seems don’t like high pitched noises. There was a bear encounter a few years ago where someone hit an axe against a brick and the noise from it made a bear take off. But before you feel brave to take on a Black Bear they can weigh over 800lbs. One was shot and killed in NJ of all places and it was over 800lbs.
@@tarynlutz2761 lol I live in bear country and when a grizzly is charging at you a gun wouldn't do nothing! Bear spray has a wider range and is the better option if you wanna live. It would take at least 3 shots with a hand gun to take a grizzly down

LOL. you totally beat me to it. LOL!!!
Yester Day 😂🤣😂👏👏
I was thinking the same thing. Lol
always thought bears just went up and left the den one day. did not know it was this long of a process
Me too!
guess they get attached to their homes as well
I knew they popped out periodically to, "$hit in the woods", but didn't realize it was this long of a process either.

Can't tell if you're being sarcastic.
@@danielas2075 what is sarcastic about the narration? Maybe pull out a Webster's dictionary or Google "sarcastic" ?
The narrator is excellent. Didn't need all that background loud music seen in other videos. Just the facts about the bear. 🧸👍
The guy is obviously being honest of what we’re watching. His voice just sort of blends in well, as if he was standing to the side of the bear.
It's called getting ur bearings!! Duh
It sure is, especially after sleeping for 4 months!! 🐻
I love it! lol!
LOL - nice one!
I get it now!!
Where the hell am I and how the f did I get here again? Many a morning I have found my self in exactly the same kind of way
Hes just tired af... It takes alot of work to sleep for 4 months
it is hard work...but that's me, every weekend. :D
Bart Kogut I wish I could sleep for 4 month in the winter and not wake up till spring.
Bart Kogut lol
UTubeIsMuhKrakane Literally lol

Never thought about what it is like for a bear to come out of hibernation...
Quality of video is great considering its a trail cam

@@bluenose6795 you must be fun at parties
This is one of the coolest bear videos I've seen... Awesome job, thanks!
Lost my left eye..!?
You should see the other bear
I wonder too, could it have been an eye infection or disease, or birth defect? But probably a fight. It's anyone's guess.
Judy Johnsen could’ve just stumbled into a branch and got it in the eye doesn’t have to be a fight, you’d likely see more scars on his face if it was a fight

This is as rough as me getting up after my 16 hour hibernation when the summer holidays start.

"Where's my weed? I know its around here somewhere."
Skunk cabbage... they actually eat it for a laxative effect after hibernation, as they will often eat clay to plug themselves up for the winter.
No...
Why would almost 200 people thumb down this video...I don't get it!

Nobody forced me to watch it!

Also apparently the hibernation i's not a totally deep sleep. They wake up every day for some hours to stretch and go back to sleep. Very interesting

He sure did. There is a creek right by the den, and the ice was just going out of the stream.
