By far, the cruelest thing to do to wildlife in the United States,
ironically, would be NOT to hunt. It is hunter dollars that insures
wildlife health and insures wildlife survival.
+Fernandez218 you can donate to mule deer foundation ( I think this one needs it most) who are seriously busting ass here in Colorado and Utah, look up their highway project, and you can support Rocky mountain elk foundation as well. I support both. There's probably others but given my location those are the ones I see who put the money where there mouth is.
+Red RumBecause there were no people,malls,highways,factories,airports,cities ,towns................ To many of one animal in an area can wipe out the population of another as well as spread disease through a herd or other species including humans. There is no better tool then modern hunting to control wildlife and ecosystems. Try reading a book
+Randy Wakeman wow......thanks for taking the time to state those facts. Even though I've never hunted bear, ( and probably never will ) I have hunted partridge and enjoy fishing and wildlife in general. It's pretty cool to learn JUST HOW Important hunting IS to maintaining a healthy wildlife " stock " if you will , so even though I personally couldn't kill a beautiful animal like This Kodiak Bear......it's important to know the Pros and Advantages of the Hunt.Again thanks Randy for this.........never too late to learn something. Cheers
+Fernandez218How much money have you donated across the world to combat poaching, protect, and restore habitat? To combat disease? What have you done to control overpopulation in the areas where starvation threatens to wipe out entire herds, for example? Funding DNR's and conservation efforts helps both game species and non-game, non-hunted species alike.
+Randy Wakeman So, from these facts one can deduce that the hunters' money is what ensures the survival of any species of hunted game; that much seems obvious. So, can't you just donate money instead? There are many ways to ensure the survival of a given species. I sense this is a more practical solution but -- and maybe this is the hippie-vegan side of me talking -- isn't it more interesting and a much more learning experience to not kill to begin with? Especially if it's not for food and direct use for clothing, etc..?
No. it was wasn't hunting at all. It was habitat destruction, senseless slaughter, the genocide against native Americans, etc. It wasn't hunting at all.Facts really are stubborn things.Reason No. 1 why Hunting Is Conservation: In 1907, only 41,000 elk remained in North America. Thanks to the money and hard work invested by hunters to restore and conserve habitat, today there are more than 1 million.Reason No. 2 why Hunting Is Conservation: In 1900, only 500,000 whitetails remained. Thanks to conservation work spearheaded by hunters, today there are more than 32 million.Reason No. 3 why Hunting Is Conservation: In 1900, only 100,000 wild turkeys remained. Thanks to hunters, today there are over 7 million.Reason No. 4 why Hunting Is Conservation: In 1901, few ducks remained. Thanks to hunters’ efforts to restore and conserve wetlands, today there are more than 44 million.Reason No. 5 why Hunting Is Conservation: In 1950, only 12,000 pronghorn remained. Thanks to hunters, today there are more than 1.1 million.Reason No. 6 why Hunting Is Conservation: Habitat, research and wildlife law enforcement work, all paid for by hunters, help countless non-hunted species.Reason No. 7 why Hunting Is Conservation: Through state licenses and fees, hunters pay $796 million a year for conservation programs.*Reason No. 8 why Hunting Is Conservation: Through donations to groups like RMEF, hunters add $440 million a year to conservation efforts.*Reason No. 9 why Hunting Is Conservation: In 1937, hunters actually requested an 11% tax on guns, ammo, bows and arrows to help fund conservation. That tax, so far, raised more than $7.2 billion for wildlife conservation.*Reason No. 10 why Hunting Is Conservation: An 11% tax on guns, ammo, bows and arrows generates $371 million a year for conservation.**financial info via America’s Sporting Heritage: Fueling the American Economy (January 2013) & Hunting in America: An Economic Force for Conservation (January 2013)
So how did they survive for 1,000s of years before hunter dollars? If you had been a non-hunter I might have had more regard for your comment.

Don't you just love when people post videos with misleading titles to fool
you :D Those were baby bears, and most baby animals are scared of
everything... And if the video was what your title suggested with grown
bears, we would be watching the animal version of Saw.
+Beast Warrior again everyone has different views. I've seen how big an adult bear is and these 2 are no were near the size. Even if they are considered adults I'll personally consider them cubs cause they are no where near the size of the fully grown bears.
+Beast Warrior I see them as baby bears cause they are almost as big as the dog itself but everyone has their own opinions. Not gonna spend all day arguing cause everyone has different views. But you shouldn't argue with everyone who doesn't share your opinion. Everyone thinks differently and I learned you can do very little to change their minds.
+DictatorBakrDon't say what you don't mean and there won't be confusion. Regardless the point I was making is that the title didn't deceive, these bears are too old to be cubs, but not adults yet either, they're adolescent bears.
+Beast Warrior I didn't mean the iq thing literally... So please don't try changing the subject and making the entire argument about iq because personally idgaf.
+DictatorBakrYou make a lot of assumptions, which makes sense considering what your whining about. I guarantee you if we took an IQ test I'd make you look like a fool, well you're doing that already, but still.
+Beast Warrior no point arguing with you. You got a dog profile pic and seem to be very into them. If you came to see a full grown dog chase away 2 cubs and are impressed I can't tell you not to be. Go look up dog chases away ants for all I care this title sounded so impressive while only someone with a low iq would find it entertaining and not a waste of their time...
+dez lucas When i read bear I imagine something over 300 pounds and 6 feet tall that can tear most animals to shreds. I came to be amazed to see how a dog can scare such a huge animal only to see him scaring little cubs. Yes they are bears but do you consider babies like adults even though they are both humans?
people saying these bears shouldn't be there are just dumb, you think
they're not happy being there with a man that clearly loves them and takes
so much care of them?? better then being on the wild waiting to be hunted
by some freak
So many of these faux "sanctuaries" dotted all over the U.S. when they are
nothing but backyard pet "collectors." The tigers in this "sanctuary" were
bred from and for the pet industry, there is no available history either on
how these bears were "rescued" or came to be at the site. Very sad, I don't
know how they got "sanctuary" status. If you buy exotic animals from
breeders and support this appalling industry, then you're not a sanctuary.
+bailey wilsonI'm sorry, I don't know exactly who you were referring to in your comment since you put two names together, but the last time I checked, it was this Royce the Arctic Fox, IT first called my comments "speculations." So I'm not exactly sure if you share the same views as IT does.
+Royce the Arctic Fox Haha another one of your moronic comments! "Kill ZOOES" please learn to spell, not the smartest comment there. What a bloody stupid comment, please don't say that I said that because I didn't, and it just sounds utterly idiotic. Of course you don't release "hand-raised" animals into the wild, unless you want them to die. How bloody ignorant. Are you trying to argue with that point?
+bailey wilson he is an idiot, bailey. He is one of those people that think that we should kill zooes when they dont know what would happen if we release these hand raised animals in the wild.
+Royce the Arctic Fox +gothicheiressleah idk how u can say all his claims are speculation when he's making valid points about the issue of wildlife captivity lol
+Royce the Arctic FoxAnd guess what.. the money that people pay for photo and feeding ops, gives these sanctuaries more money to buy tiger cubs every year! What a joke! A real sanctuary would never support the exotic pet trade industry.
+Royce the Arctic Fox Newsflash, what you're describing is exploitation of wildlife. You're one of naive people who visit a zoo or a petting facility and only look at the animals, thinking they're being fed so they must be happy. What you don't know is the extent that these animals were put through in their lives. You don't look at the history of how an orca, for example, was taken from its mother only to end up performing tricks for people so they can eat. You don't look at the booming business of breeding tigers behind closed doors to supply "sanctuaries" like these that obtain from them. You're pretty much an idiot that believes what he sees.
+Royce the Arctic FoxThat's why they wanted to get sanctuary status, while not being a real sanctuary, simply so they can make people pay for the care of the animals! --also while being legaly able to acquire more!You of all people, don't expect me to believe you just as I don't expect someone with the name of '--the arctic fox' to believe me. You're probably one of those wingnuts that think they're doing the world a favor if they kept a pet fox in a cage.
+gothicheiressleah Have you asked why the owners of the sanctuaries put up prices for people to pay for photo ops or to interact with the cubs? have you even taken a moment to think about how they would react if they were unhappy or uncared for?ill give you an answer. Many sanctuary owners needed money to pay for their animal's food and wellbeing. and of course, owning a wild animal requires not just training, but alot of attention and interaction with the animal they own. Kinda like taking care of a dog, except it requires alot more.even if you have some facts to prove your point, your lack of evidence and dependance on speculation will always undermine them.you are free to post whatever you want on youtube. just dont expect people to beleive you.
+Royce the Arctic FoxOh and yes, I do have my facts straight. The owner is a former trainer for wild animals used in the entertainment industry. He got the first TWO tigers that started this "sanctuary" from a friend who had a female breeding tiger! And now this so-called sanctuary is open to people to pay for the chance to pet and have photo ops with them. The reason this was escalated to sanctuary status was so they could obtain more animals. There is a limitation as to how many wild pets you can keep afterall. I don't bloody care if you think they're "happy," these animals are nothing more than backyard pets, and this place is not a sanctuary.
+Royce the Arctic Fox I don't care what you think. You're a typical American with an attitude like, "it's a wild animal, I want to keep it in my backyard! and look people, look how bloody happy it is!" Know why I'm against these dotting sanctuaries all over the good ole USA? There are far too many fake ones, they BUY these big cats from backyard breeders, or are loaning them from their friends who are backyard breeders of exotic wild animals. In some states there is little to no laws at all. And these fake sanctuaries support the breeding of these wild animals to become pets for bloody everyone. Go take your sympathy somewhere else!
+Royce the Arctic FoxAnd what was your question that was SOOO important to you? Why this video is getting comments?! Can't get any moronic than that! Whatever happened to free speech?PETA my ass. You're a troll. Your speculation that these WILD animals are happy in an enclosure is ALSO a speculation. Just because you see them bouncing balls doesn't make this place a "happy" place. Don't put your human feelings on animals, they don't think the same way you do. The bears may look accustomed to being with humans because they lived on their couches when they were still cubs.
+gothicheiressleah keep redirecting my questions. you will just prove that you are a useful fool for peta. now, do you have evidence that the person is only holding animals for their "collection," or are you just simply relying on speculation just to avoid being wrong.It doesnt matter, the cubs and the animals in the sanctuaries are a happy and well taken care of. the proof is in the video.face it, you lost this argument
+Royce the Arctic FoxAnd where exactly can you find information about how these animals were obtained? Video caption says currently (1 year ago) atleast a dozen big cats, and 2 bears that lived inside the house. There are more animals than the video gives credit for. There is no information about how the animals were obtained, not even in their website, except that every year, one or two tiger seems to pop up into the "sanctuary." Unless you can provide me with credible information that these animals were in fact rescued or orphaned, your trolling and calling my comment "speculations" are useless and futile.
+Royce the Arctic FoxAnd how do you know they are speculations when you're NOT privy to these information? Just as you claimed you do not represent them, and is just an internet troll.
+Royce the Arctic Foxyou really are a retard. I comment because I can. And because I have valid information about my comment. You comment to troll. BIG difference.
+Royce the Arctic FoxIt's a stupid question. A video is on youtube in the public domain and you're asking someone why they comment. Are you retarded or something?
Then if you don't, stop wasting my time. Only real reps can try to convince me if they are a reputable "sanctuary" or not. Don't talk to me about getting my "facts straight."
+Royce the Arctic Foxdo you represent this facility? Are you privy to these information? And what great "customer service" to even assume I work for or with PETA. HOW LOW CAN YOU GET? Your comment is disgusting. Please go post somewhere that actually gives a damn.
+gothicheiressleah well look: the animals that we "collected" lost their mothers to other preditors. the owner did a random act of kindness and adopted the orphaned cubs since there was no one else that would care for the cubs.you SJW PETA memebers barely do any research and rely on ignorance and speculation. Please do some research first hand
+Royce the Arctic Fox The only measure for ensuring an animal's well-being, you call it "happy," is to let it live out its instincts. If you are supporting the breeding of exotic big cats and bears for this example, and then buying them to exhibit, while people pay to visit and pet them, then you're making yourself happy while exploiting these animals. My only concern is that they are a fake sanctuary. There is no history as to how their animals were obtained, they keep adding to their collection, they don't respond to enquiries either. A real sanctuary wouldn't support the backyard breeding of exotic wild animals like puppy mills.
