Are you talking about the actual act of mating or the ritual that leads up to mating or the sounds the bear males make when they're fighting over a female? And which type of bear? There is a difference, ya' know?

I watched black bears mate once and now that you mention it, I don't recall any distinct sounds ...huffing and puffing, perhaps, but no loud growls or anything like that.

Grizzlies. They're bigger than black bears right?

They huff and puff? That's kind of like humans isn't it?

Btw, you're a hunter? Because that's the only way I can think of you volunteerily spying on bears.

I once saw this episode of Walker Texas Ranger in which Chuck Norris was lost in the woods and had his campsite attacked by a bear. The bear was on top and Chuck Norris kicked and punched the bear until it backed off in exhaustion, while Norris had some scratches on his chest.

Many bears will run from you if you exhibit aggressive behavior ...and the bear ain't hungry! But I wouldn't want to go after a big Grizzly just to test that theory, would you?

And remember, Tarzan used to wrestle alligators and crocodiles in the movies ....IN THE WATER! One of those things, in the water, is a very nasty thing to deal with. But Tarzan did it all the time, didn't he? ...LOL!

I think a man probably could beat up a bear. I wouldn't like to try it myself, but I'm sure it's possible.

If you were quick enough on your feet to avoid being mauled and could land very powerful blows to the bear, why not?

Anybody ever seen the documentary Grizzly Man? Quite insane stuff, but no man vs. bear fighting I'm afraid.

Bears evolved from Dolphins.

The ancestor of both bears and dogs were bear dogs, or more accurately a lineage called vulvapines, sister group to viverravines that evolved in to Mongooses. Seals and Walruses evolved off the bear lineage about 20 million years ago. Whales, Porpoises and Dolphins evolved from a completely different line of Artiodacyl ungulates (even-toed hoofed animals, like deer, camels, cows and pigs) about 35 million years ago.

Yes, bears and dogs are both capable of logical thought. I don't think that anyone has ever given either an IQ test though?

Bears vs Ninjas

I would say it totally depends on the bear species in question. It's a known fact that giant panda bears suck at everything, survival, sex, swimming. No doubt they will also suck at fighting ninjas.

The polar bear will make minced meat of any ninja though. The polar bear's intellect is superior, it's acute sense of the environment surpasses that of even the best ninjas, it's physical power dwarfs that of any ninja, even the made up ones, and moreover, the polar bear has an innate hatred for ninjas which makes the polar bear highly motivated. In contrast the ninja is a born coward with an innate fear of polar bears.

We don't really have to speculate on the outcome of this putative battle. In 1876 eleven ninjas were send to assassinate a polar bear in the zoo of Berlin. Mind you this bear spend most of its life in a small cage in captivity and had lost most of its teeth. The ninjas were heavily armed.

It took the bear 47 seconds to dispose of all eleven ninjas and it ate 3 of them for show and the rest used to build a ladder with which it escaped from the zoo. It was last seen in Norway on its way to the north pole.

One of our girls replies has gone missing. And some poll options. Not to worry though. I'll start a new thread.

My vote is on the ninja - simply because he/she has the unfair advantage of using traps, poison, or bow and arrow.....which is also to say that any tool-wielding human has an unfair advantage against any animal.

In contrast, the bear has an unfair advantage in unarmed combat (IE- a nude greco-roman wrestler vs a bear in a dirt arena would be torn to pieces), but in the literal sense, this specific type of warrior can only be armed to the teeth.

This would likely be a very boring battle - unless you like watching hunting & fishing shows.

Silence eternal. Forever never heard of. How does it feel to be never heard of? To be the only one there is. To find no one around you supporting you?

How does it feel?


ever thought of writing all your jibberish down in a book?


peace.

Spuriousmonkey, that is total rubbish and you know it.
I'll post the link to the YouTube video (when I find it): showing that the encounter was actually 2 polar bears and one ninja.
One bear died and the ninja escaped with minor injuries.

There was no youtube in 1876.

Another pro-pirate lie.
Ninjas invented the video camera in 1200 AD and started YouTube in 1245.
But they KEPT IT SECRET!

A ninja can't even find his own ass. That's why they are gay. He needs someone else to 'pinpoint' it.

If this thread seems not to make sense, there are two good reasons for that:

1. sciforums members went crazy for a while and started 17 separate threads about bears.
2. The 17 threads have been merged into one.

Okay thankyou for clearing that up. When I saw this thread I was like "wtf!?". I just got home from some friends and I was scared that I forgot that I started a thread called "the big BEAR thread". Or that it was an alternate thread that slipped through a wormhole. You might notice a similar increase in sophistication among certain threads.

Edit: btw, I was watching Lake Placid and the croc grab a grizzly by the foot and pulled him right in.

Yes, and they have no trouble finding the ass of someone else.

.....now as far as Pirates vs bears, I'd have to vote for bears.

Pirates would lose to bears on sheer gheyness alone.....even to panda bears. To be fair, pirates were equipped with guns......unfortunately, they were all inaccurate not-rifled muzzle loaders that were only effective at point blank range. The only other three weapons pirates had were cannons, daggers, and cutlasses. Since cannons would be pointless to use on bears, that would only leave them with close range sword and dagger (advantage - bear).
Pirates are often drunk from rum (advantage - bear).
Pirates often stink to high heaven...... which eliminates any notion of stealth vs a bears amazing sense of smell (advantage - bear). Pirates have peg legs, so they are terrible runners (advantage - bear).

I think the only advantage pirates have is the fact that they probably cause indigestion in bears from all that rum and poor hygiene.

Which isn't to be sniffed at. Jonah was probably a pirate, or had pirate blood.

But anyway, we all know that being drunk gives a survival advantage in almost every conceivable situation. I'm surprised that notions to the contrary are still doing the rounds.

Pirates are not afraid of bears because pirates can't swim.

Neither can ninjas, probably. Or pigs (http://luciesfarm.com/artman/publish/article_107.php). Are you suggesting that pigs aren't afraid of bears either?

I mean, did you have a point?

When the threads were merged, did the number of hits each recieved total? Because right now I'm seeing 910.

Actually pigs (http://luciesfarm.com/artman/publish/article_107.php) can swim.

Yes, but they cut their own throats (http://luciesfarm.com/artman/publish/article_107.php) doing it.

Did you make the mistake of reading more than the first paragraph of the article?

Since we evolved from bears, scientists are reading movements of bears as being distinct humanlike sentences, so we may soon know what the bears think about these matters.

Primate lineage split off 180 million years ago: carnivora about 65 million years ago. No relation.

Timothy Treadwell was a nutcase. All the park and forest service personnel new that it was just a matter of time - an accident waiting to happen - and it did. The terrible part is that Treadwell, aka. the "Grizzly Man," took the girl down with him by influencing her that it was absolutely safe. He's guilty of manslaughter for that one.
