"coaxed" ππ’ ππ’ ππ’π»
I read lineman and saw "co-axed" instead of "coaxed".
"Stop climbing this pole!"
"Fine..."
climbs the other pole
With not a single tree in sight, the poor bear is scared AF.
Or worse, it decides to join the lineman in the bucket.
Best case scenario: Just look in opposite directions, and pretend the other one isn't there.
Just hope the bear decides to take that option.
Well, I know how this bear votes.
Was thinking something up there Bear wants!
Damn that fucker was FAST to the second pole!
This is how dumb a bear is: He has already ascertained that the top of a pole is a good place to be (don't worry about how he came to that decision, that's a different discussion), so when he was forced down from that pole, he doesn't process the new information that the top of a pole invites humans, and attempted lynching, he immediately defaults to his previous decision to run up the next pole!
But then he finally demonstrates what has brought him 3/4 of the way up the food chain: he stops halfway up the pole, and reflects on a new concept. As he looks into the distance, about to shimmy up that pole, he sees emptiness, no humans with poles and nooses at all. That just might be a better idea than climbing this pole.
It takes him a while to process this new concept, but he eventually makes his best Darwinian decision, and runs for it!
Do bears even have a fear instinct? What animals are they afraid of?
Math.
Dogs. A yearling like this would be, anyway.
It's less fear and more about them doing calorie math. Bears won't waste the effort in most circumstances.
Humans
Depends on the bear. Black bears are known to be chickens.
there's bear in the desert? Is it a desert? Where are the trees?
Cochise county is the south eastern corner of AZ. Itβs about 50/50 Sonoran desert and mountainous area. This definitely appears to be the desert area. Iβve never seen a bear outside mountainous areas personally, pretty sure thatβs a rare occurrence.
Black bears used to live in almost the entirety of the continental United States and Canada. They prefer woodland areas but can get by anywhere with food and water. My first guess would be that this bear lives in or near an urban area.
"Look Yogi, things will get better. Come on down and we'll get you into counseling."
Imagine that day of work... Thinking you'll go make some connections maybe troubleshoot an issue oh fuck it's a 500 lb bear!
Bear down, Arizona!
Furry coming down to you
That's amazing. I can't imagine be okay with the bear wandering over to my bucket and being within claw range while literally poking the bear.
Oh, I couldnβt bear it
My buddy coaxes the bears(4) out of his neighbour's garage when the neighbour leaves it open and they wander in for mayhem. He strolls in, makes noise, claps his hands - like a waiter scattering a smear of pigeons - and they all bug out.
Dude is about 71% badass.
Is the other 29% gone when he had his arm taken off by a bear?
When Amos Moses was a boy his daddy would use him for alligator bait
The 29% is just ass.
That bear is having so much fun.
Counterpoint: probably freaked the fuck out
I read beer and was very confused.
