    If you see a bear climb a tree, if it climbs up after you, it's a black bear, if it knocks the tree over, it's a grizzly, if it just plucks you out, it's a Kodiak. This way you know what's eating you.

      That's funny, but let's not scare these folks too much. A black bear will not chase you unless you are perceived as a threat to it or its cubs. They also range in size from a St. Bernard to a large adult man. They range all over the enitre US and the forested parts of Canada. Grizzlies and kodiaks also will generally leave you alone, but if you surprise them they can get unpleasant. They can be found from the Rockies west. You are in much more danger from a polar bear, but almost no one goes where you might find one, and you can learn the precautions for them if you go to those far north regions.

There have been two or three in the past couple of years. They are not friendly, they are not okay to approach under any circumstances. Plus, they are built like a tank.

    The thing I always point out about this video and ones like it is that just because an animal is dangerous doesn't mean that attacks are common. Many of these animals stay away from people or have low numbers.
    The grizzly bear is one of the most dangerous land animals in the world, but of the estimated 60,000 in the wild, only about 1,000 are in the continental US and most of those are in the Yellowstone national park. The others are all in northern Canada and Alaska. In fact, Washington state has a long-term management plan to reintroduce grizzlies to the North Cascades national park because the lack of a large predator affects animal populations.

    • @fakecubed

      @@bluedolphin291 oh definitely. I think because so many people are subpar or mediocre, or even straight up bad pet owners that it's really normalized to treat them in that manner, even for people who really love their pets. what needs to be understood is that love as a feeling is different than love as a true concept where it's based on respect and proper care/treatment. surviving is not thriving, animals can survive many horrid situations for long periods of time. giving your dog the bare minimum to survive is not a reflection of healthy love, or it means you're just not in a place where having a dog is right for you. that includes feeding the cheapest/low quality food, not giving them enough mental and physical stimulation to be happy, not keeping up with things like their nails, it extends to all manner of things. you don't have to be a terrible person to be a poor pet owner, and I think people just hesitate to call others out or point out missteps because people tend to get very defensive when you insinuate they're not giving their pet the best lives they can, even if what you're saying is true.

I've had been stung so many times I built up an immunity to thier venom.

I was bitten by a Black Widow when I was a kid in Arizona. You could go out at night with a flashlight and find them in the Oliander bushes around the yard.

It could care less about us, and slinked back in to the scrub and disappeared.

    I do believe that in Europe, that they call Elk, Moose. I don't see why. They're two completely different species. They don't even look the same, other than being big. Also, in Florida, if there's water, there's probably a 'Gator in it.

    There's a story that one of my uncles told me a few years ago now, about a photographer who was visiting Vermont, or driving through the mountains on his way elsewhere. Either way, he was driving up one of the mountains in his Jeep and was rounding a bend and came across a full grown bull moose eating grass on the side of the road, therefore blocking the entire road. So, after getting out and taking a couple of pictures of the animal, the photographer got back into his Jeep and started to pull closer to the animal slowly, honking his horn in an effort to get the moose to move. After several minutes of annoying the animal, the moose apparently got tired of the noise and pushed the Jeep and the photographer over the edge of the mountain road and down a cliff. Thankfully the drop wasn't far and the photographer made it out alive, but it was an experience that most people don't get to have. The living after being pushed off a cliff thing, not the seeing a moose thing. Stay away from them and you'll be fine. Unless its rutting season and there are moose fighting for the right to mate near where you live. Then just go back to bed, you're not going to work/school.

    We were camping at a National Park in Northern California and at the entrance of the campground were a large herd of moose! These moose were very used to people obviously - however, still wild and need to be left alone - my teenage son at the time was so curious as to why they didn't run - so he took the camera and to get some pictures of these amazing animals and next thing I hear is loud foot running noises to our camp site - it was my son who said he thought one of them were chasing him - he got a bit close with the camera and while I'm sure it just took a step to get him away - I will say - it actually was pretty funny! These are majestic beautiful animals !! It was awesome to see them the several days we were there and experience their size and just get to watch them!

    I'm from Wyoming. We frequently have to close certain parts of town because Moose come down from the mountains. No one even tries to transport them. They just close down the area until they leave. Our park closed down for almost an entire summer once. We also have several herds of Bison. People always ask me what the most dangerous animal we have in our area is. They expect me to say mountain lions, bison, wolves, brown and black bears, even a rattle snake or brown recluse spider. But everyone will tell you it's Moose.

    The strongest bite from an American Alligator measured was 2000 psi. They get up to 19 feet. However most states they dont surpass 13 feet. Saltwater Crocodiles weigh twice as much as an American Alligator does. Alligators have a nasty reputation, but they rarely cause any deaths. No more than a death a year on average. SALTWATER CROCS kill way more poeple per year than Alligators. The Nile Crocodiles are the ones you should be looking for if you want to know which one is the most deadly. The reason is its death counts of humans far surpass the Saltwater and any other species of Crocodiles and Alligators and Caimon. Also the reason why the Saw Scaled Viper is the most deadly snake on earth.

    As an Aussie I find this refreshing because according to US reactors on Utube I had the impression that Australia had a monopoly on animials that were trying to kill you. Seriously I think I would feel safer staying here in Oz at least with land based animals. The footage of the Great White attacking the surfer was from Jeffries Bay in South Africa not California and the surfer who punched it when it attacked him was Australian Nick Fanning a world champion professional surfer. We also lived in South Africa and Mozambique for a few years and experienced some pretty dangerous critters over there as well.

      The thing about Aussie animals (other than crocs) is that they aren't trying to kill you, but react instinctively to being threatened (snakes, jellies, spiders, etc). You don't have animals (bears, cats, wolves) that are actively hunting you and trying to eat you. That's what freaks me out the most.

      ​... most animals won't actually hunt humans here in America unless someone has been feeding it which is why you are told not to.. it's illegal to feed gators in Fl for this reason.
      In times of real hunger though when there's not enough food.. like if to many gators in a smaller area.. they have been known to hunt humans then.. when I say this is rare..I only know of 1 time and the location also it still could have been from humans throwing food to them even if out of fear so they could pass on a trail.
      Usually animals want nothing to do with us.
      Wolves can be a different story as coyotes can be as well... but ppl living in areas with them are taught the best ways to avoid incidents.
      I'm in FL and we know when it's considered safe to swim and when it's not.. millions here swim in the waterways where gators live without incident.. respecting the animals nature usually prevents attacks. We are also taught that if attacked to shove your arm down the gators throat.. it forces a flap open so they will drown if they don't let go of you..a little girl saved her life that way several yrs ago.

    Some may not like this, but what you said is partly true, it does have something to do with the owners. But, it also has a lot to do with them make, or genetics of the breed. The temperament of a pit bull and what it was bred for is a challenge, that not all dog owners can deal with. There are dog trainers that train dogs for a living that don’t want to have a pit bull because of the temperament of the breed. You HAVE! To train that dog very well! You have to be in total control and that dog has to know it, he needs to be more concerned about what you would do if it doesn’t listen to the owner (you). But, it also is quite deadly because of the way the pit bulls mouth is configured, it bites and locks, which is why it’s hard to get them off of an animal or person. They were bred to fight, that’s the genetics of the breed. Not all pit bulls are like that or course, but you are responsible for everything that dog does as long as your the owner. I actually like the pit bull, but I would never bring it into my house. If something were to go wrong, and the dog attacked my child, another child, another adult,etc….. I couldn’t live with myself. It’s not worth the risk. I see one, I play with it, talk to it, I am cautious, because not all dog owners are good dog owners.🤷🏽‍♀️
