@@travisdonaldstanley6420 You can take the bear out of the wild....but you can never take the wild out of the bear. If that bear ever turned on that man, it would be over quick. A accident by the bear, a claw grazing his neck. Didn't you see how slowly the man moved the monstrous paws out of harm's way when the bear got close to his head/neck area.
I love how people see the good side and immediately want to own an animal. Training an Apex predator to this level takes so long and so much understanding of bears, you have to basically dismiss everything you know to take care of him and ensure he doesn't eat you.
----- Everyone here should know the phrase "apex predator" identifies the previous writer (Bell) as a hunter cuz that term is used frequently among hunters to descibe Bears, as is the phrase "ensure he doesn't eat you" which is used by more amateurish hunters all the time to frighten the population of humans, even though Bears kill an average of ONE HUMAN per year in all of North America, and "eat" only a fraction of those fatalities. Anyone who knows bears knows they are quite clumsy and poor "predators" who only occassionally bring down another large animal, they are poor stalkers, do not conceal well and even show indecision in selecting a specific animal when charging a herd. Most of their diet is small animals like rodents or insects and grubs, and about 60% is vegetation or roots, nuts and berries. They will, though, kill calves of larger animals or select injured or old animals to prey on if the opportunity presents itself.
That’s beautiful Jim. Gentle giant friendship. When you can rub a bear tummy, they’re your friend for life. Pretty much any crittur that allows a tummy rub means your buds. Kudos, you and Leo are special entities in this crazy world. Wonderful to see.
"You're biting me! Ahahaha!" Me in that situation "AH WHAT THE **** HOLY **** SOMEONE HELP!" Haha. I love bears. Keep up the good work you do here for all animals!
So sweet moment ... He knows the way for dealing with Leo: they know each other very well 😊... It's a special friendship ... thank you for your work and for sharing all this with us 👍🔝💕
I remember feeding an orphaned baby grizzly bear cub a bottle at a wildlife rehab here in Spokane where I had thick leather protective arm cover and even through that I could feel how razor sharp his claws were & it was just a cub! I cannot imagine how sharp a full grown grizzly bear’s claws are. How he is not covered in claw scratches is beyond me! Even being gentle the size & strength disparity is huge!
Good point! I bet Leo DOES sleep better after a nice massage. The playing and the massage also remind Leo that he is important to Jim and Jim loves him. I bet that helps Leo have a nice sleep too.
Îi iubește pe urși din toată inima.Se vede ei sunt sufletul și inima lui.Omule ești de milioane.Sanatate și multă fericire alaturi de urșii cei dragi .
Only a very few humans have the trust skills and at ease skills, care skills and love skills that Jim has for a Grizzly Bear 🐻 to trust and love Jim back.
I saw donor in the comments and I am saving this to donate. You do not have to be rich, just 10.00 adds up, but research and read reviews then GIVE! The felling you will have knowing YOU are a part of something wonderful is priceless!
This guy just voluntarily put his hand in a bear's mouth. And then he played "got your nose" with him! 😳 I've been following you guys for years, but the relationship between Jim and the bears never fails to blow my mind. Fantastic work you guys do.
Seems like big bear is mannered enouhg to be as gentle to this human beeing as it's own Momma bear had been to itself when it was a young & silly cub🐻👍
I’m pretty careful about who I think is a “hero”, but Jim is one! Jim loves his bears and they love him. Jim clearly wants his bears to enjoy every day of their lives, and it looks like he is succeeding!
Jim is the luckiest guy alive
It's not ''luck'' though - it's their relentless work and dedication that makes bears trust them
He's just a big spoiled baby.....I love it!
He is such a baby
All animals feel love- It's a universal langauge.
Dad's putting his little boy to bed.
Brings back memories.
Ikr.. This makes me miss my dad.
Yes little
Hi Leo 💖🐻👍🏻
The love and trust is amazing between you guys..daddy and son bonding time is adorable..
The mutual love & trust is so heartwarming.💙
NOTHING shows that an animal loves or trusts you more than when they show you their belly ❤ 🐻
Although if you dare tickle a cat you’re in big trouble.
Delete Buildaberg, nah it depends on your car.
Cat!
As the bear takes little nibbles here and there to test the waters a bit….

I'm so jealous of Jim. What I wouldn't give to be able to have that relationship with a bear!!!
Me too!
I join too.

@@FingRTwins it was just a cute thing to say. No need to be so intense really
Just beautiful, i love the bond between these two.
NO DOUBT! Jim is a bear in human form...
I think if that was me, I'd have to pull up a couple bails of straw and bed down for the night with this teddy bear.

Can't imagine a sweeter nighttime ritual...or Sunday morning video. Thanks so much for posting this and sharing the love.
Leo loves his daddy so much. 🐻💕
That's exactly what I do with my dog while watching the tube every night.
you mean witch yo dawg
I'm not a dog person, but boxers are great, yours is really cute.
@@_Obey_ Thanks, and we do have a boxer (the latest of a long line), but the dog in my avatar is our bull mastiff, Rosie.

@@JSun3000 💪😎💪🙏🍇 LETS BLESS UP
I think Leo would make a great emotional assistance animal.
I’d love to see Jim bring Leo inside a restaurant and say it’s ok he’s just a big emotional support dog🤣
@@opichocal Or to try and get him on a plane...
Until he ate an ole lady
Maybe he would keep my gangstalkers away.
A support animal that just happens to weigh 1,700 pounds.
I am more envious than I can express.
Bears are my kind of people. :@)
Enjoy your hugs Leo!
You are a good man Jim. Many blessings for caring for all of them.
So is Susan :-)
awwww, so cute!! Like a super big & fluffy Teddy Bear!!! Lovely!!!
Every teddy bear needs a nightly scratch😝
Adorable the bond between them♥️

Such a sweet puppy

Just special leo knows jim gives good belly rubs.
@@cathy9160 That's right.😊
You are right @@cathy9160 😄👍
You must admit, Leo knows how to handle Jim too. When Leo isn't done with Jim, Jim isn't going lol.

I love you guys. Proud to be a donor. Everyone should help out. These guys do such great work. His bless you all.
I donated! I just do one different sanctuary a month
Animals live hard , human should take care of them more
The best way to help animals is to not have children.
@@resonatorneuronium5324 true ,but the third world population grow up so fast,the more poor the more baby, unbelievable
@@nbbbbn3261 Not true! Please educate yourself instead of spreading misinformation.
What a lovebug. He's like a giant pillow with a head.
He's beautiful ❤️
One of that bears claws is half the size of that man's foot. That puts the bears size in perspective. 😳
Bears are like adorable powerlifting dogs that took too many steroids and strapped some steak knives to their toes.
I prefer wild creatures in their wild world, but that feeling Is really wonderful!
He would take up the WHOLE COUCH and then some…
THAT WAS SO COOL
Thank you for sharing this sweet moment with us. ❤ from 🇨🇦
The biggest Teddy Bear I've ever seen in my life!
Love Love Love and Love again !
Oh my God, the love and affection that this powerful animal shows you is truly heartwarming
Just a big ole teddybear 💞
When you get to grow up to cuddle grizzlies for a living. Modern day Grizzly Adams - kinda sorta not really but you get it.
Leo is presious, reminds me of Jimbo in sweet videos like this.
those claws are massive. one swipe enough to change the game of life-death scenario
look how gentle that bear is being with him......amazing.....he knows how fragile that man is compared to himself....he really loves him.
Aww, cuddle time with daddy before bed, best time, Leo will sleep better after that. Great video thanks 💖😁
Good point! I bet Leo DOES sleep better after a nice massage. The playing and the massage also remind Leo that he is important to Jim and Jim loves him. I bet that helps Leo have a nice sleep too.
I could watch this for hours.🤗
Me too. I hope that Jim and Leo won't give up each other.😊
Oh man, Jim and his wife provide such a loving, safe enviroment for these bears.
These are the dictionary definition of "good people".
What a lucky lucky bear, loves the attention and acting like a baby with love and affection. 💖
Just like a slightly big teddy bear. Beautiful love from both man and so called beast. Cheers Rosemary Perth Western Australia (71 yrs)
"slightly??" - more like massive 😆
I bet Leo would cure my insomnia if only he would just let me curl up on his tummy🐻😴💤 but one can only dream😌❤️
Such a cute Teddy Bear!
THATS MY BIG BABY BOY BEDTIME I WILL GIVE YOU A CUDDLE THEN READ YOU GOLDILOCKS AND THE 3 BEARS ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE JACKIE 😘❤😊😍
Aww Jim has his very own teddy bear so adorable !
This made my day! Thanks for all of your great work and for sharing such heart warming videos.

One act of kindness does more than a trillion heads hung in prayer.
Now that's what i call one big pampered bear.
This is what the world needs more of!
I just love these videos. They always make me smile
aren't you a bit of a baby, Leo? Yes you are
The honour must be amazing. And he's such a gentle giant!
If we could all have a Leo...
To be of service to the animals is a lovely thing. Bless all who do so.
Only a very few humans have the trust skills and at ease skills, care skills and love skills that Jim has for a Grizzly Bear 🐻 to trust and love Jim back.
Such unconditional love! Absolutely precious!
Thank You for loving this bear. Spoil him!
Impossible not to love 💘🐻🐼🐾🐾☄️☄️
Brush or scratch him with a brush, especially on his back where he can't reach. He'll ❤ you tenfold.

That's pretty amazing! That big ol' giant dangerous animal just lying there and letting him do that. Awesome!
