I'll never understand the evolutionary advantage of nature developing the friendliest fluffy soft ears and putting them on a 200kg apex predator.

Try 1763.7 pounds! It sounds bigger.

That's YUGE bear!

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

sounds about the same if you aren’t American

They were cozing up to humans for the title of "ultimate hunting duo apex" but because they don't hunt during winter so the wolves won the contest.

we should have domesticated bears

[-] [email protected] 18 points 1 year ago

I meeeean, lookin at this then the top of my bald ol head and not taking into account any other very valid arguments, I can see why people would choose bear over man in woods.

"Why, to better to hear your screams of course."

[-] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

The fur covers their ears to prevent the screams of the people they're mauling from damaging their eardrums.

Ah, thanks. Unfortunately the real estate 6-12 inches south of those ears is ever so slightly less cute

[-] [email protected] 23 points 1 year ago

idk, i disagree. they look similar to dogs.

[-] [email protected] 20 points 1 year ago

Well, according to taxonomists, all carnivores are either cats or dogs.

Carnivora are divided into two suborders, the Feliformia, containing the true felids and several "cat-like" animals; and the Caniformia, containing the true canids and many "dog-like" animals.

Thats the bait used to pull you in for the chomp

[-] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Because they hunt by using their three-dimensional sense of smell.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

An apex predator shouldn't have 30mph running speeds and 3d smell-o-vision. There is no God...

These are actually Viking's pet

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Cossacks like them too

Don’t feed them people damn it I know they look like a dog

[-] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago

Why do you feed your dog with people?

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

If they were bigger they'd get bitten off more often in all the fights.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

They live in cold climates, so they have thick fur.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Whatever you got to tell yourself buddy. Don't worry, I'll mock you with your funeral.

[-] [email protected] -4 points 1 year ago

The irresponsible pitbull owners mindset right there.

[-] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

But they’re just a bear. You can trust them being brought into the house and left with the kids.
