Polar Bears ‘Playing’ with Spy Video Cameras

The gambling link embedded in the video is annoying, but I couldn’t find a better version without it. Even so, watching the bears is worth it. ;o)

Those bears are beautiful! What a great video!
I hope someone was around to pick up the parts though - would be terrible if one of the bears ate a piece of the camera, or the battery or whatever …

They are gorgeous creatures indeed, and the cub is precious! I got a kick out of how they deployed the decoy snowball cam to distract that one bear.

I hadn’t thought about them eating camera parts or batteries. Good point, yikes. Hopefully, the people doing the research filming them took that into consideration.

Bears will never eat junk of any sort as long as it doesn’t have food smell. They’re much smarter than that.

My brother used to work with polar bears. Has some great pictures of him with a tranquilized polar bear’s head on his lap. The bear’s head is as big as my brother’s torso.

It’s good to know they won’t accidentally eat anything.

Wow, your brother is lucky. I’ll bet they are massive. I remember going to a circus with my family as a teen where there was a tiger in one of those circus cages on wheels, so you could get really close up to them—I was astounded at how HUGE they were. Their paws, OMG! And when they growl up close? Instant, blood curdling, primal terror to the bone. It made me seriously appreciate the nerve it took for humans to go out hunting large dangerous animals with just spears & arrows. *gulp*

I love the smaller critters of nature, they’re cute.
But I have a deeply rooted sense of awe at any of the massive creatures - polar bears, those big work-horses (Percherons), the big cats, etc.
They are just magnificent.
