Bear cults survived throughout Europe into the 12th century, and they were based on the belief that their members were ancestrally related to bears and could take on a visibly ursine nature in ritual circumstances. These traditions were broken up by force by the late middle ages, and now, today, 'western' human beings think of themselves as existing across a vast ontological gap from other animal species, and regard non-western claims of trans-species identity as vestiges of comically unscientific, primitive ways of apprehending the world (poets still sometimes return to these ways, but when they do we assume they are just being poets). But this prejudice is the result of a distinct local history: the same local history that for so long insisted on an ethnographically anomalous binary gender distinction between male and female.

Curiosity bear? Is that a typo or a usage that I am unaware of?

self-explanatory name for a curious bear imo

love that video. my mother's tiny papillon once chased off a much larger bear than that in colorado. im attached to the dog and she emailed me to say that he ran after a bear and was presumed dead. 10 minutes later he came back perfectly fine, bear to be seen.

bear nowhere to be seen.

What I'm learning is, if you see a bear, charge that motherfucker.

Nature abhors a surprise.

yet bears DO make leaps

people who blithely chatter in a car with children while grizzly bears climb over their vehicle: c or d

would have honked horn, but now they're on bbc

people are pretty safe in a car though, right (especially bigger american cars)? why risk riling the bear up when you could just sit and wait for them to lose interest?

It's just a giant sardine tin to a bear.

If I'm understanding correctly, this is a new bear falling from a tree in Boulder, CO today (or recently). Details from fb friend are sketchy.

Looks like a bear rapture, tbh.

Haha!

did they catch it?!?

Yes, bear was caught and is being released in the woods outside of town.

would request an abbott drawing of this tableau

Alternately, could someone photoshop a cape on this bear?

spring-boots

basketball and backboard shattering

fart lines

copies, to make bearleader pyramid

An enthusiastic bear.

saw a couple of bears in the wild for the first time ever and inevitably thought of this thread. here's one of them, just chillin' in a meadow in yosemite:

the other one was a lil' baby bear i saw later in the day but i didn't take pictures of because a) i was on a bike and i didn't have my slr with me and b) the prospect of being mauled to death by a hidden mama bear while i tried to take a shitty iphone pic of her adorable progeny seemed too humiliating to risk.

good calls

but w/ the slr…

yeah, if i could have gotten a good slr shot of the baby i totally would have put my life on the line for it - i'm committed to photography
