too big and too dumb

they kind of sleep 4 months a year, man like to work their pets, bears don't like that

We kinda did, but it's "unethical" or some shit so it's not legal most places. Russia doesn't seem to give a fuck however. youtu.be/IM0GEN_CNfI

Because bear can kill you if they want.

Bears are pretty docile if raised from youth and more importantly well fed. The poles had one in their WW2 unit

>The bear shits on the carpet
>You scold him
>The bear kills you

So can many kinds of dogs

I think it'd take more than a stern talking to to provoke a domesticated bear to kill

there has been some success at this

Wojtek was pretty cute.

Fuck that. Before too long you'd have this shit. No way I'd have a gf who got BEAR'D

I, for one, welcome our Ursine-American friends

Unironically safer than pitbulls

That what simultaneously the funniest and most horrible thing I ever listened to

It's useless to do so. You have to feed bears tons of meat to satisfy their hunger everyday and it doesn't even produce enough pounds of meat for eating after it's mature.

You typically domesticate animals that will be herbivores who convert free grass and seeds into milk, eggs, and meat for food.

They need space.

I thought he only died because he stayed past a certain season so the bears that were around his campsite weren't familiar with him and the ones he usually was friendly with already hibernated not to mention the bears that still hadn't hibernated were starving.

Yeah, those desperate starving inland bears came around IIRC

it's fake

Don't you have a pile of money to be swimming in at this hour?

christ bears are terrifying. other predators don't really look scary when they're laying about but bears are just massive tanks, their weapons and sheer size are always on display. cute, but I'd never go near a """tamed""" one in a million years

I'd like to say I'd be cool with a tame bear and go pet it and give it some love (they are pretty cute) but it would always be in the back of my mind that I'm alive right now at this animal's pleasure.

I do, but that's beside the point, btw that bear guy was a full-on Elliot Rodgers autist, just listen to this: youtube.com/watch?v=gDQkLF1Vd3o

Obviously sedated.

yes but if a dog attacks you then you have a 99.99999999chance of survival unlike the bear

I bet you guys have some big scary bears in Scandinavia, yeah?

We aren't so concerned with bears. Moose are more dangerous.

Do they fucking attack humans?

Yes. More prone to attack than bears are, actually.

I've heard tell that Sweden has more moose per capita than any other nation in the whole world

Probably. We have to kill about 100,000 of them every year, and we're only 10 million people.

Yes and they hide near roads waiting for cars and when they see one they jump in front of it hoping to get some insurance money

This.
>that youtube parody where he's running around the woods like a faggot yelling "COME HERE CINNAMON!"
Still was horribly tragic

You don't domesticate killing machines.

That's crazy as shit, man. I need to ask a Canadian or Alaskafag if our New World moose are violent like that because I had no clue.

They're not always like that though, but you must always respect them.

You are the only North American who doesnt know this ffs.

yeah sure, i bet hes representing the majority

If your head accidentally gets ripped off when the animal is playing, domestication shouldn't be attempted.

Herzog needs to read audiobooks

What I'd really be scared to get close to is a "tamed" big cat, like a tiger.

Could listen to him talk all day

>Do they fucking attack humans?
If you hit one with your car you'll be crushed by it's massive falling body. If you haven't seen one up close, they are massive.

That's 100% killing machine.

>t. eastcoaster
I was always taught to stay the fuck away from moose when growing up

>That's crazy as shit, man. I need to ask a Canadian or Alaskafag if our New World moose are violent like that because I had no clue.
They're all over Northern New England.

I wanna go moose hunting in Sweden now

Same reason big cats weren't domesticated, an animal won't recognize you as authority if it can kill you with one swipe of a paw

Mirin them pumpkin deltas

then how come one of the only documented tamed bears was polish

Nice

In one of his last videos, he recorded a bear torturing a salmon, very uncharacteristic for a bear to do. He says “I don’t like this bear, something is wrong with this one” or something like that. People think that may have been the bear to kill him

Video?

Because it's not domesticable, too ferocious
Almost every single potentially domesticable mammal has been domesticated by pre-modern man, modern biologists tried with pretty much every species and only managed to domesticate hamsters

Taming =/= domestication

I read it on Wikipedia, I’ve never seen the vid. Look for it on wiki and check the source, I’d do it for you but I’m on mobile

Hamsters are still viscous little shits though. Even rats are more amiable.

We have many folktales of bears sequestering girls to mate with them here in South America

Interestingly, our bears can build stick platforms in order to reach elevated food and to sleep
