Camera Curious Bears

[cameratrapcodger]

This is the first of several videos I am trying to finish. We all know it's hard to ignore bears when camera trapping, and that's what this video is about. It sums up what I've learned about their attraction to trail cameras, and I hope you enjoy it.

You captured alot of curious behavior with that video. Thanks for posting

That was great! I haven't had cams out until just recently and all I get is are bears tearing cams off of trees. Your video gives me some hope that they'll adapt to their presence.

That was creative, educational, humorous, and very well done.
I particularly enjoyed the great captures of the relaxing bear and the bear dissecting felled dead wood.

Very well done Chris. I absolutely loved this. Looks like a lot of time and effort went into the creation of this video.

AWesome video Chris! Great book on bears called out on a limb that that's worth a read if you haven't read it. I currently camera trap in locations with no bears, and never had sets disturbed, it's a blessing and a curse.

You talked about mouth open bears and blowing air, which reminded me of this (same Author of the book above), cued to the correct starting point:

Thanks for the comments, guys. I enjoyed his book, but I hadn't seen the video. There is nothing like hand reared animals to see things like "air gulping'. Kilham has seen it all, and up close. Many thanks. (His dad was a well-published ornithologist, though I believe he was a medical doctor by training.)
