      @@wardosravin It most likely went back in the water because it was upstream of the bear, which forces the bear to either swim to shore and then run upstream and jump back in, or start swimming upstream. That caribou never would have escaped the bear on land. Most heard animals like caribou are sprinters, they stay in big herds and they all run different directions when attacked to confuse the predator. A grizzly can maintain a 15mph lope for an ungodly amount of time, so one v. one the caribou's only chance was to somehow lose the bear on the river.

    Apparently, the caribou felt it was unable to ascend the far bank of the river and decided to return to the side it came from instead. The bear chose to get on land anticipating the caribous return to shore. When it realized the caribou reversed direction the bear did not hesitate to resume the pursuit. I think watching this will dispel any doubt about a brown bear's endurance let alone its speed.

      Bears,like all predators,will pick off the weak and the sick or elderly because it’s easier than getting into a fight with something it can’t beat.Remember,wildlife have no medical insurance,and if they get injured trying to feed themselves,they just become prey too.

      swimming is what they use against a wolf pack, wolves run better on land but can't swim very well because of shorter legs, the caribou probably learned how to throw off a wolf and assumed bears were the same, but bears are far better than any deer adjacent existence in the water so it essentially was caught by its own assumption of what its normal predators would have done.

    @JonnoPlays 2 роки тому +430

    A bear is nearly a ton of pure muscle. The other animal is a juvenile so it's muscles can't hold that much stamina. Just like the dude said this is a chess match. The animal thought the bear wouldn't swim across. It was wrong however it knew once the bear was going one direction it would need to hit the shore in order to change directions. The animal swims back up current the other way but it loses stamina while fighting the current. Unfortunately this chess match was already over in the very beginning when the bear was running all that distance. You have to imagine the bear knew then and knew the whole time it would get the kill. It wouldn't have pursued that initial long run otherwise. Bear knows what it's capable of and so did that animal. Interesting to see this long of a hunt. You'll never see that on the TV. This was a great watch. Cheers to the dudes who took the time to film it.

      James Vickers When it comes to endurance, wolves can pretty much go forever. Caribou are next in line. Unless this caribou was sick or injured it could have outlasted the grizzly which has far less endurance than either wolves or caribou. That's why the large ungulates run to water when pursued by wolves. On land the wolves have the advantage, in the water the ungulates have the advantage, or at least a much better chance. They can stand in water a wolf has to swim in. This allows them to move faster in the right depth of water. It in turn allows them to use their defensive weaponry far more effectively. As you know, bears are great in water. Grizzlies have longer legs than wolves, they are incredible swimmers, and even in the water an ungulates defensive weaponry is almost useless against a powerful adult grizzly. So wolf, water, bear, run!

Caribou can out-swim them. Not the bear. Also, notice the bear came out of the water, ran along the other shore to get a better angle on the caribou and close the gap aggressively. Intelligent creature. It also looks like fall, grizzlies especially can get very vicious that time of year. Again, very intelligent creatures, and as one person commented on here, “a lone caribou, is a dead caribou.” All not a good mix or situation for that caribou.

    WOW, INCREDIBLE FOOTAGE AND DATA. For those of us who want to know just how strong grizzlies actually are, this footage shows us everything about their level of strength and endurance. Its incredible how it not only pursued the Caribou over vast distances, including land and water, before it reached it's target, yet still had enough energy and the strength to pull it out of the lake with ease. Absolutely amazing animals.

    Moral of the story- when being chased by a bear never stop running

      Why run? You'll just die tired.
