Possibly the most frightening talent of the brown bear is an uncanny ability to blend seamlessly into the environment in an almost chameleon-like manner, allowing them to easily surprise their unsuspecting prey.
@UncleDuke1969 like my 4 year old playing hide and seek 🀣
@UncleDuke1969 They should dress up as a middle-aged woman; that works much better for stealth.
@UncleDuke1969 Apparently when I was very, very, very little, I though pulling my dress over my head was a good way to hid.
@UncleDuke1969
Love this. Nearly missed him he was so well hidden πŸ˜€
@UncleDuke1969 why did you post a photo without a bear in it?
@UncleDuke1969 Bears are the most amazing creatures.

@UncleDuke1969 Haha, did you see that Gov. Murphy has reopened bear hunting in New Jersey?

A great book about bears and humans:

A tiny American town's plans for radical self-government overlooked one hairy detail: no one told the bears.Once upon a time, a group of libertarians got tog...

Are you absolutely sure, that there is a bear in this picture? I'm looking at this picture for more than an hour now, and I can't find any hint. Please help. πŸ˜‰
@asrivkin
@UncleDuke1969
Funny Uncle. I’m in need of one.
@UncleDuke1969 reminds me of my 3 year old playing hide and seek only the bear can’t announce β€œhere I am”.
@UncleDuke1969 I think you posted the wrong picture. This is just a bunch of trees.
@UncleDuke1969 Why did you post this picture of a tree when you're talking about brown bears? There aren't any bears in the shot at all.
@skysailor @UncleDuke1969 Trees ? πŸ€”
@JPK_elmediat @UncleDuke1969 Oh you're right maybe the bears are hiding behind the trees in the background.
@UncleDuke1969 🀣🀣🀣🀣
@UncleDuke1969 It would be nice if they actually had a bear in this picture for context. Trees are great but a photo of a tree teaches me nothing about bears.

@UncleDuke1969 Looks like a Griz. Is it a European brown? (your photo?)

Head & ear size/shape, and big time paw:claw ratio difference.

Sorry for "that guying" your joke post! πŸ˜…

@UncleDuke1969

Too many anti-tree-huggers on this space. Blocking.

@UncleDuke1969

Why are you talking about bears?

Nice picture of the woods though!

@UncleDuke1969 it’s got a Yogi vibe πŸ˜‚
@UncleDuke1969
Not unlike playing hide and seek with todlers...
@UncleDuke1969 There’s a Bear, where?
@UncleDuke1969 One of our cats has this finely honed skill too
@UncleDuke1969 Bear was told brown was slimming.
@UncleDuke1969 the bear is pulling a classic John Cena. #youcantseeme

@UncleDuke1969 Hey, all I see is a tree. Not sure about this whole bear thing.

@UncleDuke1969

Pole dancing isn’t what it used to be.

@UncleDuke1969 Why did you post a picture of a tree, and then talk about brown bears?
@UncleDuke1969 That bear has a lot in common with my cat.

@UncleDuke1969

I don't see anything where is the bear?!

@UncleDuke1969
But... all I see is a bear. Surely, if you want to show it hiding... give it something to hide behind.
@RussSharek
@UncleDuke1969 wow that looks terrifying! So big!
