Are bears getting smarter?

I've been marveling at this ever since I first saw it a few days ago. (Could not find it in search, so apologies if it was posted already)

I don't know if we've somehow just turned a corner in human-bear relationships, but this has just got to make people think and re-examine what we know about bears.

This little guy is freakishly good at imitating humans isn't he?

Yes I think you may be onto something there...We are encroaching in on their land and forcing them to have more and more contact with us humans...Maybe mama bear is teaching the baby bears how to forage food from humans instead of how to gather berries and catch fish...

Apparently not Russian bears-




Good roll though!

No. most just don't give them the credit they always had already.

Bears are awesome. I'd like to have one. Only I would be happy with just a teddy bear.

No offense, but I hate you for not putting a "warning-graphic" disclaimer on your video. I mean, when I saw the car driving, I did assume what was going to happen, but I could have braced myself for it a little better with a warning!
Oh, I guess it would help if I had looked at the title of the video too. But still, I wish you had not posted that, lol.

OP, neat video, thanks for sharing!

Oh god, it's happening!
