- We closely follow an impressive grizzly in Kananaskis Alberta along Hwy 40. We also go on two scenic hikes. We did some bad Mic work on the video, sounds very unnatural and monotone because we're just too self-conscious, sorry about that. If you like the video please consider subscribing.
Such a good looking grizzly. Awesome. All that beautiful scenery. Love it. Thanks for the video. 👍👍👍❤️
Thanks Don, definitely Kananaskis is a beautiful wilderness area, I love it there as well.
I mean that scenery is just epic. Well, the bear too. Amazing footage.
Thanks
Great videos and great narration
Thanks Jeffrey, glad you enjoyed.
Thanks for sharing your day and the bears with us. I really enjoyed the bears and the scenery. I am from the U S take care🌷
Thanks for the beautiful video👍👍 enjoy the scenery and grizzly🙋♀️🙏
Thanks Kathy. We're glad you enjoyed the video. My brother and I just returned from a long vacation.
She had some place she wanted/needed to be..she was in a hurry for sure. BEAUTIFUL Griz..thanks!
Very, very, very fantastic work. These are awsome animals, scarey too!....Get ready to floor the Jeep!!!.....🍁
Thanks. I agree, Grizzlies are amazing.
Wow! I can't believe what you did. Don't you know that's not good for the bear? Don't you know you watch a bear from a distance and you don't follow? You just minimize the contact. Following with your car at a close range is a pretty ignorant thing to do.
Great video! Thanks for sharing.
I've always wanted to visit British Columbia. I'll have to contact you for pointers and places to visit such as the beautiful places in your videos.
Thanks Brian, BC and Western Alberta are fantastic places to visit and explore. Go ahead and ask me some questions and I will try to help you out.
Kannanaskis is not b c its alberta...
love your sense of humor!
Beautiful Grizzly and amazing photography! 😎
Thanks, it's always a pleasure to watch a grizzly
Beautiful Bear! Gorgeous scenery!
Thanks Carol, Kananaskis is a special place
instructional video on how to harass a bear. follow it for miles in your car. but it's ok because everyone else is doing it and we are mellow nature lovers and just love bears so much.
Really nice video, Thanks :)
Thanks Sarah, take care
She’s such a beauty.
She sure is, Grizzlies are an impressive animal.
She’s it hunting, probably got cubs hidden back home
Yes
As others have said, encouraging habituation, acknowledges that he recognizes that the bear is stressed by popping but continues. Not cool -I am really not impressed by this behaviour. "Following for miles and miles"
The female was completely stressed and these jack@sses are following, stalking her. It would have been beautiful if it charged the car and attacked them.
This guy is ignorant about bears. A bear snapping it's jaws is not good. Very surprised the bear didn't attack the car. That bear is very capable of opening car doors &/or smashing windows.. It's sad that the guy knew that the bear was stressed by them following her but kept doing it. We need to learn to Respect animals in THEIR habitat.
good work sir..... I wish we'd see this type of respect more, esp in the 48. they should be back in limited numbers in the most remote regions of colorado, n calif, n utah and wash.
Thanks kelvinkloud. It would be nice to see grizzlies restored to some of their former ranges. In Canada, I would like to see grizzlies back in the Cascades. Wolves and grizzlies are indicator species that show an intact functioning ecosystem. Have a good one.
@@bohrerbros7555 they are amazing animals.... I realize they can be dangerous & have to kept away from suburbs & ranchers should have some latitude to protect herds.... yet they shouldnt have been completely eradicated in the lower 48 south of wy or coastally in oregon, n calif.... in the most remote regions of protected areas of 3-4 other states they should be able to share the eco system. there is a reason they were once there not that long ago.
Ah I've done that hike a couple times now, I believe it's called Headwall Lakes. Beautiful area. You guys always choose to hike and camp in prime griz country? Lol. It does tend to be the most remote and beautiful 👍
Thanks, it is a beautiful area and it is prime grizzly country, my type of place.
Any tips on areas I should avoid? I'll be in K country June. Last year I encountered Grizzlies on Opal ridge and want to avoid the same thing playing out.
I also encountered a grizzly years ago on both Opal hills and Bald hills in Jasper. The trails off the southern end of the Smith Dorrien road have a lot of grizzlies, the trails around the Kananaskis lake vicinity have grizzlies, and the trails along Hwy 40 towards Highwood pass have grizzlies as well. Plus other areas. However, they will post warnings at the trail heads if any grizzlies have been noticed in the area. Just stay vigilant, carry bear spray and know what to do if you encounter a grizzly. That said actual bear attacks are rare. I've encountered a grizzly(ies) about a dozen times while on the trail, I've been bluff charged and approached, but so far never attacked. Keep in mind, that attacks are extremely rare, just stay vigilant. Have a safe trip, take care.
That was a cool video. The Bear looked tame. I think you should of tried to ride it.😁 I got bad jokes too.
Thanks, glad you liked the video. Riding it, tempting as it may be, I have it on good authority that bears don't take kindly when you get on their back, Lol. Take care.
That was really nice, thank-you.
That was awesome..... love the Rockies.....
Thanks, I love the Rockies too.
Good vid!
Thanks, glad you liked the video.
I though she looked like she was moving pretty fast before you even mentioned it. I was like "oh my poor legs would be burning if I was trying to outwalk that bear (cause you're not suppose to run). She would have caught up to me in no time. Lol
Bears can move at a pretty good speed, much faster than a lot of people realize. Take care.
Glad you were safe in your car! :)
Thanks Carl, Kananaskis is prime Grizzly country and when one spots a Grizzly along the Highway it's a good idea to stay in your car at a safe distance. Take care.
I ride a racing motorbike and people do that to me a lot, mostly men and people with kids, they harass me, it is easy for me to leave them and keep on my way but that happens to me several times during my commute, "every day" believe me it is not nice to be followed that way, this kind of harassment may not end in anyone getting hurt, but it imprints stress on the harassed. No one needs this, but what if... and we never know.
The video is amazing, neat and easy to follow, great job in not shaking and not doing fast movements. we got to see a beautiful Canadian bear.
Sorry man. Didn't realize that was you. I think I rode you into a mailbox once. Laughed my ass off too. Feel kind of bad now.
is the brother monotone drone too? i bet the conversation was awesome .... reminded of a 1970s wildlife reel the teacher would put on. Nap time.
When I do mike work it doesn't feel natural to me so I sound monotone, something I have to work on. Hope you enjoyed your little nappy time, I for one enjoyed the wildlife reels the teacher put on because I LOVE nature.
@@bohrerbros7555 lol.
SM Smoof - If you're not able to operate the complexity of your device, there's a control that allows volume control, eg: [0 < volume > 9]
You refused to use the control, and watch that beautiful diverse scenery...why? How old are you?
Your sound is from a truly spoiled generation.
Everything handed to you, and you are the first to want better.
If you want better...then make it - If not...stfu
@@justplainbrad7713 lol, GFY
SM Smoof looks like you mainly communicate with TLA
Are you guys retired to be able to do so many nature hikes and camp outs?
No, we're not retired. Boy, I wish I was, lol. My brother and I take long vacations, this year we took 6 weeks off. But I hope I can retire in about 5 years. Take care.
Prolly just not workin cuz except the pipeline there really isn't work 4 everyone that wants n needs especially with all the fresh arrival of immigrants!
Do you have bear spray or a side arm for protection?
I always carry bear spray in bear country and I hear it can be quite effective if used properly. In Canada sidearms are regulated, so it's hard to have a sidearm in Canada. I don't hunt so I don't have a rifle. I hope I never have to test my theory on Bear spray being effective, Lol.
Yes, I always carry bear spray in bear country, especially when I'm hiking or backpacking. I didn't see your comment in notifications for some reason. Have a good one Nancy.
Cool vid
@@jhonmichal974 Thanks, Jhon Michal.
I see grizzly bears alot here in alaska
This footage is incredible
Thanks
You guys really shoot some fantastic Video's, thank you for sharing with us. Nothing better on a Sunday morning. Please be careful and wear you're bear spray on your waist. Best wishes from Texas.
Thank you so much Lisa, and yes, we almost always carry Bear spray with us when in Bear territory. Best wishes to you as well.
@@bohrerbros7555 Hi there. Thank you for replying back to me, how cool. I comment here and from time to time and I have to say, you are the very first one that has replied back to one of my posts. Thanks again and please, wear that bear spray on you're waist. Warmest regards.
Those were Ammonite fossils. Now I must go because Goldberry is waiting.
Thanks, there is a lot of sedimentary rock that contains some good fossils. Reminds us of the past, a world much changed over time. Take care Tom.
It would be funny as heck to show this bear walking fast like this and have that song "I'm In A Hurry And Don't Know Why" by Alabama playing in the background! lol.
That is one beautiful bear. I can beleive that it has not came after you. Thank you for sharing .
This bear did not threaten us, but one has to show respect and keep your distance. Thanks
Around Highwood pass area by chance?
Hello, we first encountered the grizzly a few KM north of Highwood Pass alongside HWY 40, but it eventually ended up at Highwood Pass.
BOHRERBROS ,I suspected as much... We watched 6 Grizzly once at the pass... definitely a corridor for activity!..
All the best!
Thanks for watching.
Amazing catch..be careful out there 🐻🐻🐻
Thanks
Good videos Bros'. She would eat 30 of those? Grizzly's not afraid from seeing humans so much daily. They are monsters, but then yet gentle Mother's to the Cubs.
That bear's got places to go, people to eat! lol.
Her color's are wild. This bear is a hybrid perhaps? Unique.
No there’s genetic diversity in grizzlies, black bears, etc. Their coat colour can range from light brown, grey to black, and so on. Take care
No reason a for an apostrophe 's on the word color. Otherwise it is color is , color has. Yet you can spell hybrid, WTF?
Wow, even fossils, what else have you two found lately? lol
Lots of cool stuff, hard to keep track, lol.
It's a beautiful bear 🐻 not often will wild bear comply with a film 🎥 director taking it que to walk along the road side making a great show of hunting / stalking..
She was looking for a reason to go off 👍❤️
The Bear walked a long way to not find much to eat?
In the wild sometimes an animal has to travel a long way from food source to another food source.
the bear was waiting for these fellas to get brave and get out of jeep, then it was Fiesta la Human dinner bell.
She's beautiful I never thought there are so many colors in the g Isley! Thought some were brown bears mated with grizzly
Grizzlies are brown bears.
Teasing john with those watch out for Grizzlies jokes, could backfire on you...ever hear the story of the boy who cried wolf?!
One day there could really be a grizzly near by and john wont believe you...
great people,country and bear
Sure is a beautiful place, thanks.
@@bohrerbros7555 My brother is in Whitby.Canada
Love from South Africa
When the bear starts acting nervous and clicking its jaws, it's time to drive away and leave it alone.
Unfortunately for the bear, the warden didn't leave it alone. The warden hazed it away from the highway with a bean bag gun and cracker shells. Who would of thought that the Park didn't want grizzlies walking in peace beside the highway. You should contact the Kananaskis Park service and give them a piece of your mind.
@@bohrerbros7555 That is too bad the warden did that. The only excuse I can think of is that the warden feared some idiot would get out of their car and try to pet or feed the bear.
@@Greg-fs8np Ever here of the term "Bear Jam", happens every time a bear is seen beside the highway inside a Park. The warden is trying to prevent bear jams. It is human nature to look at things they find interesting, so you are criticizing basic human nature. I also think if you found yourself in a Park and saw a Grizzly you would stop and observe the Bear even if you claim otherwise.
Followed it for too long ~
This video was shot 20 plus years ago when I was younger and quite excited to see a grizzly bear. Today I only watch briefly from a distance. No excuse but times have changed over the years, when I was younger it was quite common to see bear jams (large crowds stopping along the road) when a bear was spotted. People use to get out of their vehicles and take pictures. Yes, times have changed and sadly I'm no longer as excited when I spot a grizzly, lol.
This is so wrong. Absolutely harassing this bear.
Better bring your protest sign and start shouting and screaming at all the people who pulled over and followed along side. Oh my God, l still get nightmares when I recall the warden showing up with a bean bag gun and bear banger hazing the bear away from the highway, the horror, the horror. I bet you would be the first to pullover if you spot a grizzly. Don’t judge unless you know the context of the situation and what’s happening off camera. Ever hear the term “Bear Jam”.
Are you following it by a road?
Yes, my brother and me
Love you fellow Canadians but she probably was walking fast because you were following her in your Jeep and she was afraid. You were giving us commentary as if YOU knew what was happening. How about videotaping this beautiful female Grizzly for a short time and then stop stalking her. You probably stressed her out.
You should know that this video was taken almost 20 years ago when we were much younger, we would not do the same today. Also, this was one of the first Grizzly bears that we encountered so we were quite excited. I realize that isn't a justification for making the bear uncomfortable and we would act differently now Take care Jenn.
Not a good idea to be jokin about grizzly he won't know when your serious!! Are the lakes volcano or one? She's lookin fer somethin I can only think of her leavin her babies
it seems recording voice someone's video
For me, it is hard to do mic work. Hard to sound natural using a mic after the video has already been shot. Take care.
You might aggregate her she get ticked
Aggregate, or agitate?
The noise from your Jeep was bothering her smh I wish humans can leave the animals alone and stop destroying their home
Do you know what happens when a bear is spotted in a Park, a "Bear Jam" develops. Hordes of people follow the bear with their vehicles taking pictures. I expect you to show up with your protest sign and start shouting and screaming at all the people. Did you watch the whole video? The ranger showed up and later used his bean bag gun and bear banger, OH MY GOD, THE HORROR, THE HORROR. The park doesn't want grizzly bears hanging around beside the highway. I wish the world had fewer people like you, criticizing and attacking other people for no good reason!
@@bohrerbros7555 Damn boy, finally a rush of adrenaline in the beeotch slap ... I like it. Get after the folks on here dissing your art of the outdoors.
@@smsmoof8128 Thanks, I'm just telling it like it is, the plain and simple facts of how it is.
I wish I could harvest this beauty
I've been involved in training bears for quite a while. I specialize in Koala Bears! Visit my website: agnosticthinker.com.
You were harassing that bear and this is not appreciated by people who respect wildlife. Please, stop doing that.
