Natural World: Ghost Bear
In the vast wilderness of Canada's west coast lie forests that are home to North American black bears that through a quirk of genetics are born pure white and known as ghost bears. Canadian film-maker Jeff Turner and his own family spend a year following a she-bear and its cubs as they coped with the constant threat of hunger and potential predators all around.

It doesn't matter how strong or bigger the opponent is. A mother defends her cubs in every situation.
Except for some Human mothers
I only wish ALL human mothers would do likewise.
Yeah that’s not true. I just watched a grizzly catch a black bear cub while the mother and her two other cubs escaped.
Still, if that male wanted to hurt her and the cub, he would do.. Look at his size....
that was a young black if he wanted she would be dead
This is a great example of black bear communication! She is huffing and clacking her teeth to ask him to move out of her proximity. He doesn't respond and she escalates to a physical attack to get him away from the cubs. Good mama.
@baylow - right, thats why i dint understand why the narrator said he had no idea she was there
How come when I was hugging and clacking my teeth at a stranger and they didn’t respond and I escalated to a physical response I was given 15 years in jail for aggravated assault
No he was obviously moving out of the way she didn't need to chase him and attack him like that also u sound like a feminist
Its referred to as " chuffing ".
@siân diann We? 😆😂👋 " We " still kill each other professor. 😂👋
Something about animal documentaries man, I could sit here for hours
ikr
Aren't you supposed to be with Kanade?
I just finished watching Angel Beats, after the longest time of postponing it as I thought it was going to be trash. It was amazing, one of the best anime I have ever watched.
Hey isn't it angel beats
Yeah it’s like watching a reality show but real
0:44 That fallen tree and the growing moss just looks so damn perfect it's like a set for a fantasy medieval movie. It just blends so damn well into the environment and the growing moss on everything just makes it pop. Even growing on the vines, it's so beautiful.
Yessss 😍
I live here... Vancouver Island, BC, haha.

@@Elusiv00 Wild bears, I bet that's what you meant. Yes, they are!
@@ve7yan yeah, my bad lol
poor bear was like ''hey hey calm down please stop hitting me''

@@bruh949 She not a polar bear though, she's just albino isn't she???
@@Parasolhyena Not Polar, they have very distinct shoulder and neck muscles. Although it has been known for polars and grizzlys to meet, or even mate.
parasolhyena sorry got confuesd
IdarkphoenixI sorry got confused
These videos are magnificent. I like the nature and its extraordinary creatures. Thanks BBC Earth for this wonderful series.

@The Saint ST1 Why did I find it funny?
NANI!!!
Black bear: "Please Karen, I just wanted to see the kids"
lol
Upish Cat 😂😂😂😂😂😂
@Kim jong un that's not a polar bear
White bear:" Once a month, no more, and don't u forget the alimony!"
Eks dee
*she was so tiny compared to him but she still fought him*
WellEndoew246 •_• that’s what’s mother’s love can do
Doesn’t matter about size 💜
Audrey Martinez he didn’t even hit that bitch back
@@Anna-nr3up Oh it does. It really does. Props to the mom, but she's lucky he didnt want to fight.
@@Anna-nr3up what about dick size
This is what any mother bear has to endure to survive and protect her family.
R.I.P. lil' 🐻.
A better mother than a lot of humans.
Amen 🙏🏾
Nah
Shut up you incomprehensible dick.
Narrator: "In fact, she's looking so relaxed it's a little bit worrying!"
Momma Bear: "Free babysitting service! Score!"
The narrator doesn't understand why David Attenborough is doing so well. If he said me, I would offer him an advice. I know he will never ask me, and he will never be a good narrator.
Mother is always a mother no matter who it is. A mother's love towards their kids is priceless
Rightly said.
Shut up and come up with something original. What are you, a mpdibhakt
@@finnyforever08 is something wrong with u. Your mind doesn't seems to be fine.
Tanveer It's called desperate for attention. Just ignore them.
Not true. The ability to be a mother doesn't mean you should be one. Look at this broken generation for proof.
Black Bear: I just wanted to see the kids...
White bear: Not until you pay this months salmon alimony!
Child support turns women into prostites for the federal government. .60 of every $1 paid goes to the government.
Salimony
Feel sorry for the male, he didn't know the female and cubs were there, he just wandering through the woods, I wish them all a long happy life 🤗
She looks so cute just resting when he ambushed her lmao
She'd be a goner if he ambushed her.
Black Bear: Gee, lady, I didn't know you were there! Calm down!
White Bear: What's wrong with you? I'm all white in this brown & green forest! Don't give me that malarkey, you stalker bear!
You are funny person i like you
Its probaly the cubs father
poor spirit bears in the rearly days before we knew what they were.

@@NatandGeorge Hahaha! Poor Spirit Bear!😨
Seriously, they really are beautiful animals. It's amazing to see this population of leusistic bears. There's many more than I realized!
Take care!🤗
@@heathphoenix1341 Thank you. I like you, too. Take care!🤗
Aawwww, so sad, I’m glad it wasn’t one of her cubs though.
Beautiful bear, beautiful forest. Just stunning.
I thought it was polar bear
Probably almost everybody
Is a Kermode Bear. 😛
@BMW W. Lol no, think white lions and tigers. It's just an uncommon genetic trait that is inherited but not commonly expressed.
Spirit bear. Its a black bear with rare white fur.
But not Albino. Albinism comes from lack of melanin (natural dark coloring) which makes the eyes and flesh pink and the fur is actually transparent, a deficiency therefore seen as an ailment. The white gene is totally fine, in terms of genetic health. Polar bears are naturally transparent furred with dark eyes and flesh even with healthy amounts of melanin.
The male bear is a gentlman. He backed away without a fight
He probably didn't know about the babies
You see it alot with animals . Alot of male animals won't fight with female animals . It's like it's a natural instinct
Did he just say "she is bear'y upset" at 1:27?
Wenbiao Liang no
I totally agree!
Wenbiao Liang very
He should have
Nope
Omg a Kermode Bear - the white lion/tiger of the bear world. Not albino, is a recessive trait - in other words a genetic trait that isn't commonly expressed phenotypically, runs in the family but not always worn on the sleeve. Blep
Albinism, however, comes from lack of melanin (natural dark coloring) which makes the eyes and flesh pink and the fur is actually transparent, a deficiency therefore seen as an ailment. The white gene is totally fine, in terms of genetic health. Polar bears are naturally transparent furred with dark eyes and flesh even with healthy amounts of melanin.
How interesting! Thank u
@@zelinarmy611 You're welcome. I'm happy to see content on such wonderful creatures. The white gene phenomenon is always fascinating and calls for much conversation. 🙌
Albinism is also recessive...
Yes. It's the Kermode Bear or "Spirit Bear". They only live in British Columbia. I believe they are considered a sub-species of the Black Bear. A Polar Bear is much larger and has different coloring.
Nerd
Its so funny and cool that the Mamma bear is small compared to the black bear, but yet she still scares him away.
Mama bear literally rolled her eyes like..”don’t try me! 😤”
the strenth of a mother and her love
This is just an example of how a mother will do anything for her babies
Woah no need to be so aggressive with him.. *sees dead young bear* nevermind.
Yeah I literally thought the same thing until the end
Mother bear trusts humans enough to sleep near them and thinks, "If there is a danger those guys will let me know".
Humans: observe uselessly
Bears trusting human = that's huge warning ⚠️ because hunters are out there and also if bears get closer to human, they will get killed most likely. It's better for bears to be scared of humans or not getting any closer to humans.
@@saraha2100
This bear trusts this human. As he said, they've been following her for a long while; and have done her no wrong in all that time. Of course she feels relaxed around them. However, I think she also expected him to monitor the area and give warning, which he did not. He's a bad neighbour. Get's all this film footage for free.
What an absolutely ignorant comment. It's not the camera guys job to interfere with the situation. So no, he wasn't just "observing uselessly" 🙄
1:40 he's like "whoa calm down woman, jeez"
The white bear is so rare even the black bear wants to have a good close look at it
R.I.P black bear ,you will be missed 😔
"you pick the wrong house foo!!"
Omg I love her! She's like this in all her other videos. Super chill and super aggressive only when needed. ❤
I need you to be like that when you're with me
@@justadreamerforgood69 bruh... 💀
She's so pretty.
Aww that poor dead bear. 😭
Nature
I am glad I live in the same province as these amazing bears! This was a great documentary.
Absolutely gorgeous environment.
Such a sad ending I just couldn't BEAR to watch it again! I'll show my self out!
What a real gentleman the male bear was
True so why are they accusing him of murder? Lol
male bears normally do that when confronted by mother bears. they dont want to risk injuring the mother in order to mate with her
Addicted to videos of wild animals protecting their babies
1:38 Wow, talk about "pissed off"
It's scent. The same shit you express from dogs essentially. The other bear is smelling it on the rocks
Mommies are the best.
She didn’t get herself into the situation...she just needed to nap!
It’s the male that came up close!!
So sad to see the small bear laying in the water💔 This is why I can’t see nature videos😓
Victim blaming at its finest. 😁
Fem8nist attitude
The nature of this place is so gorgeous! I almost wish I was there if it wasn't for the bears
My friend Joshua says no one is more irrational and detestable than your mother. He says that he knows you. I can give you his insta.
@@lai8544 instead why don't you wish and hope that humans just leave that place alone and leave it for the animals that inhabit it, instead of wishing you could invade it
@@somnuswaltz5586 Mmm that' not politics, what do you mean by invading I mean by simply appreciating nature. Humans are animals too, remember that
@@lai8544 use a dictionary. I mean INVADING like a predator invades the nest of its prey or whatever. No idea why you brought up politics. Shows your ignorance.
@@somnuswaltz5586 And that's why I said that humans are animals too, it would be great to be there but we couldn't with bears because they would kill us. I don't wish for them to get out of there, it was just a comment expressing my desire because the place is beautiful.
And yes, I'm definitely more ignorant of your native language than you are..
That black bear has a lot of work to do on his pickup strategies.
The bear at the end dead rip lil bro
She’s so pretty 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺 omg a spirit bear 💛🥺 I love her
Fighting for something gives you an edge. “Don’t underestimate the power of free me”
All the black bear did was walkthrough the neighborhood.. haha.
Exactly and now he's accused of murder? 😂
@Mizrahi With Attitude that makes zero sense
“Beary upset” I see what you did there.
No you didn't.
@@briandoolittle3422
Reverse Uno Card
My sister and I spent like ten minutes replaying this and doing voiceovers lol. Also that forest is so pretty!
The photography is unbelievable. It actually matches the narrative, something that many, many (most?) other videos do not.
Rip bear I cried 😭🥺🤧😢😪😿😫😩😔😣
Nature is straight up brutal
Thanks BBC Earth
Black bear: Damit woman I just want to see my kids!
White bear: NO! I caught you with that other bear! What's her name!
Black bear: You're crazy and we broke up before that! I just want to see my kids!
White bear: NOOOO!
Black bear: Fine! No more berry support for you then!
Lol!
Lmao. Berry support 😂
Lol
Thank god mother bear didn’t get hurt. She got to play with her babies. I loved it!
male bears will not normally attack mother bears as the mothers will normally fight to the death and the male bears would rather not risk harming the mother in order to mate with her
I wish they would include a link for the whole episode/show. Great videos.
Cute white bear
The black one wasn't scared ...he was just a gentleman
I have seen thee of these bears and they just beautiful.thank you Kermode bear.
That black bear was a MONSTER!
For being black?
Well that's racist
What the hell are you guys talking about?😂
@@midnyghtson r/wooosh
Good luck mom's, God bless momma Bear, great mother
“one swipe of his paw could have injured or even killed her’’..injured yes but to kill her with one swipe of his paw no
A claw swipe could shatter teeth or take an eye, those could become fatal.
How do you know? Yes he would have killed her in one swipe.
@@joshmorrison2989 What do you mean? It's a fucking bear, animals aren't weak and sensitive like humans
@@イレ-t8x That doesn't matter tho, she's a small female bear and he is a way bigger male bear. The same thing with humans, one really big strong man can kill a small women with one punch
@@PTS-Maid I mean..you can't die from a punch unless you get unlucky and your head is hits lethal object, like a rock or something.. in which case, it's not gendered at all. what are you on about?
no woman will die from a punch, my man. not even a bunny can die from a punch. y'know what a punch is, right?
She's beautiful!
Just like us, male bear didn't fight back. ☺
For anyone wondering, this is a Spirit bear- a sub-species of black bear with white skin. Polar bear males are wayyy larger.
Crazy a white bear gets mad at a black bear that tried to run away
Black bear knew she was just trying to protect herself out of fear because of his close proximity to her
I love these BBC vids
Those were both beautiful bears!
loved him smelling the rock.
that’s a bit weird of you
I hate how huggable these killing machines look
I've seen another video of her fighting the bigger bear, when he was fishing but he again didn't fight back. I'm sure he's very used to her and her agro...
Ghost bear mama is absolutely magnificent 🐻😍
Man I wish Attenborough was narrating this
I wish that too. No one could ever replace Sir David.
He’s old now
BBC AMERICA!!
GREAT!!
THANK YOU!
PLEASE KEEP IT COMING!
💙
“She is lucky that the big male didn’t fight back” like seriously?!
No one…literally no one on the planet messes with an angry Mama bear
Darwin and physics say different, Big Show would of handed her her ass had she hurt him.
She is lucky I mean look at that size difference dude
Lol we all saw who the lucky one was. You gotta understand, in wild, size doesn’t matter as much as the aggression and the sharpness of the refluxes. Have you ever seen how awfully tough honey badgers fight back against lions? To the point that lions have evolved to naturally not mess up against them.
@@SubtleAsh-TheImmortal Lions have been known to prey on honey badger, a lion isn't gonna engage in a full on fight with another animal when injuries are high.
I love to watch wild animals documentaries but sometimes its so gut & heart wrenching & heartbreaking during tragedies that i hate having to cry 😭 unlike disney in lala land there isnt always a happy ending in the real world wild or human! 😢
"Hey cubs, if this black weirdo offers you candy don't take it"
That is one respectful male bear.
The black bear was just walking around, didn't fight, was very chill and now he's accused of murder? 😂
Как Вы это снимаете? Молодцы! Обожаю Медведей. Я, сама, медведь по рождению.
2:15 one swipe of a bear cannot kill another bear
maybe he had a KNIFE
Maybe not instantly, but a deep gash in the neck or leg from a paw of an 8" tall Black Bear would certainly be fatal since she wouldn't be able to defend herself.
@@spacewombat4569 HaHaHa. You don't know what you are talking about. 1) You write 8" tall... thats like 20 cm... 2) and IF you meant 8' (feet) tall, you are even more naive!!!
When in the video was said that the bear was killed in one swipe ?
@@IvanIvanov-vy7pt way to focus on typos and not the actual point
What a beautiful bear, glad it didn't get any worse.
Black bear: "I'm here to pick up Rebecca for our date"
Mom: "Oh no you ain't"
Bruh those are cubs and thats a big ass male bear lmao
@@meatballsandwich5329 maybe he's on the football team
Is this an albino black bear ? She beautiful
The male is just like "my mom told me not to hit a girl so I refused to hit her"
Bears are so cute but scary at the same time. I always feared running into one while hiking in Eastern Kentucky. Thankfully I never saw one.
The spirit bear is one of my favorite bears, because it's a black 🐻 that is actually white and it's not even an albino ☺️but leucistic meaning an animal that can be born white. Take white 🐅 s and white 🦁 s for instance.
The added roars always get me lol
Watching this big polar bear take a nap makes me want to take a nap and I'm at work. 😴😴😴😴😴😴
@@AaronSaysSKOL Oh thank you I didn't know thanks.😄👍
@@AaronSaysSKOL
This is not albino bear
Good mom
Black bear: "chill out karen this is my apartment too".
That female bear, a spirit bear, she is gorgeous, with her dark marking around just one of her eyes. 😍 stunning
He knows her, which is y he didn't put up a fight. That was daddy bear trying to see his cubs. Momma bear keeps stopping the visits, smh
Momma bear ain t messing around. The mail bear even know that he should back down.
*who loves these videos?😍😍!*
this was exactly what i needed to see today!
Real life shinies! O.O
You should try throwing a Poke ball at it and see what happens.
That male black bear has a good heart not fighting a female bear,I like it good manner long live good bear.......
1:27 was the a pun? cos i thought i heard him say "she is bearly upset"
I was in a retail store parking lot one time and stumbled upon a car with an unattended baby inside. The baby's Mom was putting her cart back just as I was walking by the car and went ballistic on me for being by her baby. I was really surprised by the ferocity of her reaction towards me... "GET AWAY FROM MY BABY!" it was only afterwards that I realized she was in mamma bear mode.
