I saw a cave in Germany where they found a bunch of cave bear skeletons in a single cave. There was a skeleton put together and it was massive. A friend told me when he was in college a professor took a grizzly bear skull, put it inside a cave bears mouth and closed the cave bears mouth.
Truly a monster of a bear, especially for it being primarily vegetarian Cave lion bones are found in cave bear dens. would almost certainly be a death sentence for any predator to walk into a cave and the bear wasn’t fully hibernating
@@implausibleimpossiblehypot4006 no thats only with the short faced bear, because the short faced bear had skinner and longer bones, the cave bears knees wouldnt snap from that because of their bones being proportionally much more robust
People have bagged Alaskan grizzlies that are 11.5 feet tall. Cave bears still survive by their closest cousins the Kodiak bear and the Alaskan grizzly.
"People have bagged Alaskan grizzlies that are 11.5 feet tall." PhD zoologist here with specific ursid (bear) study, you don't know what you're talking about. - can you substantiate this claim? Such a height for any extant bear is extreme. Even polar bears - comfortably the tallest species - do not (on record that is) reach 11' 6'' "Cave bears still survive by their closest cousins the Kodiak bear and the Alaskan grizzly. - an ancestor isn't the same species, so it isn't 'living on in extant bears' - in any case, Kodiaks and grizzlies are neither ancestral to nor the closest relatives of cave bears! BOTH subspecies are evolved from ancestral brown bears. That fact alone already places those ancestors closer to cave bears!

This is a good video I always hear a lot about cave bears from other Paleo videos, but this is the actual first video I’ve watched about cave bears and I also found it very interesting I never knew how massive they were keep up the good work looking forward to the next video
Aww yeah! A video on Cave Bears! I'm gonna come back to this one over time! This is a brilliant video! Also, thank God you're alright! I'm glad to hear that you're OK, NORTH! You take as much care as you can now, OK?
It's unlikely such a large bear would be vegetarian. It's very doubtful they wouldn't eat carrion or kill an animal if the chance arouse. Bears are generally omnivorous. Pandas are an exception, but a cave bear would be an apex omnivorous predator, imo.
They were probably primarily herbivorous, like the majority of extant bears are to some extent, but they probably would eat insects or carrion if they came across it and might’ve hunted occasionally.
@@simonj3413 The brown bear is omnivorous. Nowhere near 'herbivorous.' Not sure why a cave bear would be a big swerve from that. Large bears tend to eat meat when possible, and some, like the polar bear, are carnivores.
@Tommy Charles brown bears are omnivores, yes, but up to 90% of their diet is derived from plant matter. They do consume meat when it’s available, but most populations eat more plant material because usually it’s far less energy-consuming than the process of hunting. With cave bears, a largely vegetarian diet is inferred by low levels of nitrogen-15 and carbon-13 found in their bones, which animals that eat a lot of meat consume at a faster rate. There is still evidence that the bears were omnivorous to a limited extent, such as the cannibalistic scavenging described in this video, and one population found with elevated levels of nitrogen-15. However, scientists still largely believe that they had a more plant-based diet than any of the extant Ursus species such as the brown bear, which as described above usually doesn’t consume too much meat to begin with.
@@simonj3413 It's not just that they're eating meat because it's available. Bears who rely on fish at certain times of year...that's important for their life cycle. Without the fatty acids they're getting from the fish, they can't survive and reproduce. It sounds like you're trying to force some kind of 'almost vegetarian' value on them. You shouldn't do that. They're not herbivores. I'm not sure about your 90% figure...that sounds like BS, to be honest. But even if true, that 10% is extremely important. They're nowhere near herbivores. But yes, some bears actually are, for the most part.
Both, Humans and Neandertals kept the cave bear in holes or big cages from whelp to adult and then to offer them and eat the bears. This ritual survived in the Ainu of Northern Japan until 1940 ..I believe our forbearers killed the cave bear off by consuming like a kind of hog a little bit different... Very interesting lesson, God's Blessings from Northern Germany Ludwig.
I was at the Laguna tar pits museum ~1995 and asked the curator if man getting to N America caused the cave bear to go extinct, of men could not go to N America until the cave bear was extinct. I was told that question starts arguments with paleontologists.
Just a little story I have. So about 12 years back, me and the boys were out looking for fishing grounds, we had walked for about 12 to 15 minutes before we finally had found a big pond, about 7 meters around, we caught our Sun and Barloziylokazo fish (Dont ask about the name its cutural), and we began to walk back to my truck, and my friend saw a big cave like cavern, he begged us to go inside to see what was in there, we argued there for about 2 minutes and just decided to go in, we explored for a bit, found cool rocks, and while in the middle of looking, I stepped on something hard, at first I thought it was a rock, but then a looked closer, and then it looked more like a skull, and if your a 26 year old paleontologist then your gonna get excited of course 😂, So then i yell, "GUYS COME CHECK THIS OUT" I had a little brush l could use to brush away the dirt and other matierials, so then i got to work, as I began to brush off the rest of the head, i began to notice there was a neck, then I began to go down the dirt and began to see a rib cage, I then realized, it was an entire cave bear skeleton , with its cub, And we abviostley couldnt just rip the skletons out the dirt like sticks, so we began to chizel out the skeltons around the dirt, and then we called a Paeleo service called, P.W, they came and got the skeltons out the dirt, They asked if we wanted them to take it, but i declined, so I got home, and me and the guys, started reconstructing, i am a paleontologist so i knew where all the bones should go, we constructed for 4 days, until both momma bear and baby Cave bear were fully constructed, and ive had those two in my house ever since, it still frightens my girlfriend in the middle of the night, but yeah, a story I tell many people, Always look twice.
After being so blessed as to find and acquire such an incredible find, the least that you could have done is take a pic and share. I bet that no museum in the world has such a wonderful pairing. Congratulations
@cwavt8849 Well I'm not a very "Take famous pic become rich" person, why? Well I had a Inostrancevia skull and tail bone stolen from me about 4 years ago, Because I posted it online with a picture, but yeah, I'm not one to exploit myself for money nor fame.
I have a question for you. Let's set a scenario, by any way, you somehow become a deity, and the first thing you want to do is to create an animal. What would you create?
When it comes to the chest with Cave Bear skulls this could be a religious ritual. In Finland they found many bear skulls with holes in them, these have been interpreted as a paleothic bear cult, perhaps this bear worship was more widespread (bears have always been significant religiously or culturally as many of you may be aware). Edit: Nice use of the Far Cry Primal pictures, truly an amazing game.
It’s amazing that the virus made it all the way here? What? North 02 please make one on superdeterminism. It’s of course way beyond anyone’s comprehension but if you read the entire bible, obviously happening. I have been your biggest fan since the beginning. Thanks so much. You’re very special.

I just viewed a video of the short faced bear as being the most terrifying predator of prehistoric times in the Americas & now this 1 about cave bears. I can only imagine how a fight between these 2 bears would have turned out.
Really great presentation! I got a little bent out of shape by the image at 3:18, though I realize it may be there for pedagogy’s sake. It seemed in such contradistinction to the eloquent, erudite context. Which made me think how far we are from the arcadian lands of pre-industrial world. I suddenly realized how nothing today can justify the hunting of apex predators (or any megafauna, really) in a world with plenty of safe land for thriving hominids and not nearly enough for endangered, non-human carnivores, like Ursus spp. Bears, lions, tigers, hyenas, leopards, wolves, cougars, cheetahs, panthers, jaguar, wolverines, coyotes, lynx, dogs (wild-type, not feral), mink, martins, ferrets, fishers, otters and foxes should all be given more ample wilderness and a wider berth. They really suffered for our own species’ extravagance. The people with enough discretionary will and wealth today to eat meat-myself included-can easily pay a bit more per pound to cover the costs of wild predation on domestic livestock. We might even be expected to reduce our meat consumption by some reasonable fraction, since no-one other than pregnant women “need” more than three or four meat-centered meals a week. Most people in developed economies could probably reduce their current mammal, fowl and fish consumption by half without incurring protein deficiencies. I definitely include myself, friends and family in that idea. Hunting isn’t the only threat to megafauna of course; climate derangement, noise and light pollution and suburban sprawl are all problems. But given all the threats, the possibility of a future without Kodiak and Polar Bears, Artic Wolves and Foxes, Siberian Tigers or Amazon Jaguars is totally unbearable to me (not to mention the loss of snowy Decembers or skating on lake ice). I don’t know how North 02 feels about these things, but it seems like a worthy subject for this channel. It’s a gargantuan subject, since contributors to environmental decline are legion-environmental toxins, wetland drainage, deforestation, paving habitats, global warming, glacial retreat, coral bleaching, flyway disruptions, impoverished genetic diversity, biome desertification and fresh-water crises are all factors in a filamentous, devitalizing complex. But we can, absolutely, change the direction of factors from mutually wounding to reciprocally nurturing, by confronting the three biggest problems: fossil fuels (can’t live without that mega-truck?), factory farms (lives of torture for our bacon burgers & chicken nuggets?) and false freedoms (assault-arms, SUVs and anti-science conspiracies are not mentioned once by American or French revolutionaries). My new motto is “If the Sanctity of Life Is a Lesson of Sentience, Then Sentient Love Should Live Sustainably for Living Species.” I don’t know-suddenly it sounds a little too breezy . . .

You should look into the extinct Steppe Brown Bear. Equally as massive as the Cave Bear, but was more carnivorous. It is even considered to be a carnivore. These giant bears were truly the rulers of their lands. No Giant Lions nor Giant Hyena like carnivores stood a chance against these powerful Bears.. Btw what's the music you used

Interesting. Hearing about skulls in a 'chest' and it having maybe been spiritually important to 'natural religions of early humans' is curious really. Even in my native culture of Finland and Finnish people, pre-christian shamanistic tradition sees the bear (brown bear) as 'holy' to certain point - almost god like spirit of the forest really. You could not even call it by it's actual animal name, but had to use different ways to indicate to it as to not actually ask for it to appear and come or generally to upset it. Which is why my language has several words meaning 'bear' - for example, mesikämmen - 'honney-paw'. So when I read in a series of books about cave bear having been important to certain Neanderthals it was correct, even if the story was imaginary. So that was really accurate to history then, even more so, no wonder it was reading material for some universities or so it stated at description of the book.
Great video as always, just a small comment : You made quite a few mistakes in this particular video (....died --> die dout / geological range --> geographical range).

But given all the threats, the possibility of a future without Kodiak and Polar Bears, Artic Wolves and Foxes, Siberian Tigers or Amazon Jaguars is totally unbearable to me (not to mention the loss of snowy Decembers or skating on lake ice).
I don’t know how North 02 feels about these things, but it seems like a worthy subject for this channel. It’s a gargantuan subject, since contributors to environmental decline are legion-environmental toxins, wetland drainage, deforestation, paving habitats, global warming, glacial retreat, coral bleaching, flyway disruptions, impoverished genetic diversity, biome desertification and fresh-water crises are all factors in a filamentous, devitalizing complex. But we can, absolutely, change the direction of factors from mutually wounding to reciprocally nurturing, by confronting the three biggest problems: fossil fuels (can’t live without that mega-truck?), factory farms (lives of torture for our bacon burgers & chicken nuggets?) and false freedoms (assault-arms, SUVs and anti-science conspiracies are not mentioned once by American or French revolutionaries). My new motto is “If the Sanctity of Life Is a Lesson of Sentience, Then Sentient Love Should Live Sustainably for Living Species.”
I don’t know-suddenly it sounds a little too breezy . . .
Bruh...when gf starts complaining she can't relax and get it on until that bear is dead...you kill that bear...and then you grub...
@@nicholasbyram296 She'd find it much sexier if you fixed her a great vegetarian dinner with wine and music; no big pow, no animals in pain, just great food, great sex!
The old "Me big-man, have big-gun" was always an act-out some guys liked, everyone else not so much.
You should look into the extinct Steppe Brown Bear. Equally as massive as the Cave Bear, but was more carnivorous. It is even considered to be a carnivore. These giant bears were truly the rulers of their lands. No Giant Lions nor Giant Hyena like carnivores stood a chance against these powerful Bears.. Btw what's the music you used
It's the other way around
Cave Bear is way more Carnivorous than the Steppe Brown Bear
@@prehistoriccreature1800 The Extinct Steppe Brown Bear.. Not the extant modern one
@@MWK1995
Yes.
@@prehistoriccreature1800 there was an extinct brown bear in Europe other than Cave Bear
@@prehistoriccreature1800 no Cave Bears were pure vegans
Skyrim music back👌🏼
Having these today would mean every family having at least one machine gun or something
Why? There are humans on earth today that live with prededators.
@@taminy2051there's lots of poaching in Africa and South Asia, and Americans who live in grizzly or polar bear country tend to be a lot more fond of firearms than those who live in new York or San Francisco
@@michaelwarenycia7588
Most people on Earth living near large animals are not Americans. Most people on Earth coexist with large predators without the use of firearms.
Does anyone else hear Skyrim music or is it just me?
Virrus also in my house for now we beat it.
Thanks stay safe
Love the skyrim music x
I'm so very sorry to hear about that hopefully you can get to normalcy COVID sucks dude I've had friends with the sickness and they say it really scared them, but they are ok now !! Good luck with everything!!!??🍁🇨🇦✝️🛐🌹
I like Skyrim soundtrack in the background.
Interesting. Hearing about skulls in a 'chest' and it having maybe been spiritually important to 'natural religions of early humans' is curious really. Even in my native culture of Finland and Finnish people, pre-christian shamanistic tradition sees the bear (brown bear) as 'holy' to certain point - almost god like spirit of the forest really. You could not even call it by it's actual animal name, but had to use different ways to indicate to it as to not actually ask for it to appear and come or generally to upset it. Which is why my language has several words meaning 'bear' - for example, mesikämmen - 'honney-paw'. So when I read in a series of books about cave bear having been important to certain Neanderthals it was correct, even if the story was imaginary. So that was really accurate to history then, even more so, no wonder it was reading material for some universities or so it stated at description of the book.
take care, all the best to you!!!
Do you think cave bears would breed with the normal bears eventually being bred out over a couple thousand years?
Some modern Brown Bears in Europe have been found to have Cave Bear dna so interbreeding is possible.

The Skyrim music makes the video
What’s the song or music ?
Music name - Frostfall from Skyrim

Our ancestors had to be hardy and vigilant, for sure. Fire use was our high technology along with tool familiarity....
@8:45 true...and that guy at the bottom, he's had it.
Great video as always, just a small comment : You made quite a few mistakes in this particular video (....died --> die dout / geological range --> geographical range). To keep the credibility of your videos high maybe good to have someone screen the videos prior to posting? A few quick corrections in the text or edit can make a big difference!
Yeeaaahh?
I hope you will be ok. Statistically speaking it is very likely you will, but i still hope for the best.
Viruses are amazing, you ought to do a video on them.
Is it just me or anybody else hungry for bear meat 😂
Nice Skyrim music
When pandas gain the balls to eat meat but still like plants:
When CS Boog gets a rescrpit
no mention of interaction with the short face bear?
Short Faced Bears are a North and South American species while Cave Bears are a European and Asian species.
When I see those pictures of grinning murderers with the fresh corpse of a sentient creature, I loathe people..
So our ancestors got really good at hunting cave bears - great size is certainly a drawback when going up against a high intellect and tool use.
