Timber Wolf: The Grizzly’s Bane 

Is Guzzlord hiding in the forest? XD

That's a raven.

@@dimman77 No it wasn't. It was me.

@@SluttChops You never said you're not a raven. Nice try you shape changing trickster.

@@dimman77 Yeah, and these are raven food calls :) they are telling their friends there is food here!!

And years without success

Leave the Knicks alone

No fr 😂😂😂

Im ded 😂

Lmao!

lol

It’s the foreign sounds that do it. Normal sounds like birds and other animal calls won’t spook them. But a branch breaking will.

Those weren't animals. That was me.

Yeah I'm sure they get habituated to those. If the background is nothing but nonstop screaming I'm sure you go deaf to it eventually lol.

That obnoxious noise was ravens cawing. It's a sound that I'm sure the wolves are used to, even if it sounds rather bizarre lol

Yeah, probably takes a lot more aggression to set a point across when you're all strangers in a group, even if you get to know each other after a while

Hmm

This makes sense to me as a human..doesnt make it so

​@@recinese the researcher that came up with the "Alpha wolf" theory, spent the rest of his career trying to dispell it. Wolf packs in the wild are a breeding pair and their offspring. The "alpha" female keeps her daughters from ovulating to limit inbreeding with their father or brothers, same with the "alpha" male, preventing his sons from impregnating their mother or sisters. Before you bash someone for something do a little research for yourself and stop just regurgitating what you've heard from other misinformed people

@@recinese the studies make it seem very likely though

That’s what it looks like when they yawn.

It looks like a werewolf.

@@timothybaker4091 it straight up looks like it's dislodging its own jaw xD.

@@add9319 Oh no, they're evolving! Snakewolves are among us!

@@cintronproductions9430 i wish

Depends on if you and the person you're saying it to are friends imo

@@connor863 friends can still make it sound threatening

@@brianisme6498 that's true but it's more likely that it would sound like a joke and not be threatening if said between friends

Connor no, you can have bad friends. So, you’re tied being held at gunpoint by your friend saying that you’re gonna feed the wolves.

@@brianisme6498 I don't think someone who would hold you at gunpoint and tell you that you're gonna feed the wolves is actually a friend

bna references huh

@@MinhHieu-ie6ehWhere'd you get BNA out of it?

Minh Hieu nba?

All MN pro sports teams suck, generally. The twins are okay but it won't last.

that's because they lack opposable thumbs.

Yes x1000! Maybe for Patreon or something. I’ve always wanted to learn to draw these particular items (skulls and muscular structures), and having the physiological history being part of it would be so cool.

True!

does the heart mean yes

Wonderful idea. Im crap at drawing but id be really interested in knowing what all the structures are for.

@@bari2883 Nah, trust me. Everyone knows how to draw. Even you. You just haven't discovered that talent yet.

I think that was referring to the long chase wearing down the prey. Humans are evolved for long distance endurance running because of our early hunting practices.

@@Tb0n3 it's because we have the ability to sweat most animals cant sweat

That was a reference to endurance hunting. Like we humans do. It's a pretty rare trait in nature which is why we often forget how useful it is. But worldwide apex predator? You'll likely think of wolves, their close relatives or humans.

i support this statement but the economy doesn't

👍

Im still digesting that. I know they fight over food or space, but *to eat???* Wtf wolves (I still wanna find this information elsewhere)

@@eduardofreitas8336 I think they mostly go for the adolescent grizzlies.

They probably rarely hunt bears unless they are fighting for food or starving. Even then they would only go for young, inexperienced ones.

She said, “they’ll go after grizzly bears”.

Thats so absurdily specific that it may be true.

@@phoos4029 Look it up :)

The same but with an improved self image is called liposuction.

@@Pastamist it's a joke from the Farside comic strip

@@joelhughes9615 Thank you :)

and then you look at a pug and laugh

Actually, Modern wolves and Dogs aren't as closely related as we once thought. Evidence suggests they share a common ancestor, but aren't directly related

There are wolf and dog crossbreeds

yet you know it's not a dog right away. There is something subtle yet absolutely distinctive about them.

They definitely don’t look like them besides shape

just like his mother

@@bewilderment8735 OMG! Wolves killed Bambi's mother with a gun? D:

And then Bambi looks at the camera like “ah shit”

Remember when they drew the art in the background and showed it at the back?

💖

@@SolomonGriffen Danielle draws all of the animals.

@@SluttChops yah that's what I meant.. she said she learned how to drow the animals on skill share or smthn..

Where can i find a copy of thar art

that collab would be awesome

Too bad most of what she said only applies to wolves in captivity. All that stuff about intra-pack dominance is bs and doesn't exist in the wild. Only one female in the pack mates because the rest are her offspring who haven't ventured off to find a mate of their own yet. They act the way they do in captivity because you've essentially taken an animal that lives in tightknit family groups, and thrown it together with a bunch of unrelated individuals in a confined space they can't escape. Also, wild wolves would never kill a pack member unless they had no choice. They won't even do it when on the verge of starvation, and some take it as far as choosing to starve rather than eat a member that's already deceased. A true wolf pack is nothing more than two parents, their kids, the occasional sibling who chose to tag along with their brother or sister when they ventured off on their own, and in some rare cases packs contain an unrelated outsider they chose to accept rather drive out of their territory.

@@brettperry3737 I don’t know anything about wolves so I’m not going to argue with you, but I’m genuinely just curious- how do you know so much about them? I would expect this channel to be pretty well-researched, but you seem to know what you’re talking about as well so I’m just curious.

@@brettperry3737 Most of what you say sounds right but I find "some take it as far as choosing to starve rather than eat a member that's already deceased" rather hard to believe.

Meow -wolf

Whenever I hear meow I think supertroopers

No it goes moo

What does the fox say ?

@@blicky308 neigh neigh

i did my senior essay on that

Agreed

Underrated comment. Red wolves need protecting.

Yes! Please do an episode on the red wolves! They are near and dear to me.

I am an Arkansas State Red wolf and would appreciate a video on red wolves as well.

Yeah, the horny humor are not generally appetizing...

They actually eat more smaller prey

Exactly! But I don't think that could be possible I'm no savvy on this subject but as far as I know only Siberian Tigers sometimes hunt brown or Grizzlies in Russia!

I believe that wolves hunt black bears more often than grizzlys...

@@Vexinsight that would make sense.

@@Vexinsight They don't hunt brown bears. They kill their cubs and harass brown bears near their denning site [protecting their pups] or at carcasses. Black bears have been known to be hunted by them though.

Deer, moose, bison and elk are the chosen food for wolves, rabbit or partridge, sure,,, bears, brown or black! Maybe in desperate times, but certainly not the normal.

She just has a wolf bias with that exaggerated claim

@Russian Terror just because the bears win doesn't mean the wolves don't go after them

Russian Terror yeah she does give off those furry fanatic vibes

@@tnb4509 She said "go after," she didn't say they always win...

Yes, mostly near dens. They are extremely protective animals and will harrass anything coming near their dens. They will "escort" bear off the denning area by biting the bear a little and a lot of barking

Well, she did say "one of"

I was braught up to fear wolves, coyotes and bears. Simply bcuz those three r the most dangerous predetors in my neck of the woods. I live east of algonquin park and about a 2 hour drive from ottawa. My family has a small hobby farm that has been in our family for over 150 years so we always need to be weary of predetors. Thats why we have always gad at least 1 dog there. Sence my 2 oldest dogs have passed away recently, we have only 1 dog rn. Hes a great pearynease/akbash puppy. Hes around 20 months old and at least a roughly 130lbs. He might be ok by himself but we do want to get another puppy like him. Plus hes a suck.

Pretty sure that was a smaller bear, pack hunters want food not an annoying battle

@@baileydombroskie3046 Oh that sounds like it must be a really cute dog, Im sorry about the other two tho

@@baileydombroskie3046 no

Ethiopian red wolves aren’t even true wolves. They’re jackals

What do you mean by safe to travel? Planes are perfectly safe.

@@brianisme6498 theyre neither jackal or true wolves. But still part of canis genus, so still closely related to jackal and grey wolves

Robert W she watch to much Faux news.

Oh hey, I was looking for you this morning but I couldn’t find you. I walked to the store instead.

Every Furry: *UwU Rawr X3 Glomp!*

NO

Bruh

Furries can get lost.

I've read about eagles intentionally spreading wildfires to get their prey to move out of dens, wouldn't have put it past them to take a lone wolf

@Bruce Wayne Yeah, if it's not a dead timber wolf, the eagle wouldn't even try.

I forgot they are a thing

@@kettlebells-ez9xi me too

Agreed yes please do

She tells you the same thing about every animal... humans, humans, humans...bla,bla, bla

@@darrenswails that's because it's true for basically every animal (if you're referring to human activity threatening them with extinction)

Ok

@@franciscodelacruz3757 4

You should specify that they only ship to the US.

If I may I recommend the dragon millipede for the next video it's a wonderful unheard of arthropod

Right? I seriously think dogs are one of the most misunderstood animals by us lol

And they also regurgitate their food into puppies’ mouths! I love the canidae family so much! They’re so adorable and sweet

Dogs kill for fun

@@dondelion8415 dogs, especially wild canines do not kill for fun. They have high prey drives to ensure their survival... they learn to be successful predators through practice. "Killing for fun," is not something that can be measured- to survive they must kill and "fun" is a human emotion that you are trying to equate to survival.

African wild dogs eat their prey alive, lovely isn't it? (They do it to eat fast so lions or hyenas don't steal their food)

I agree with this comment!

And WE'RE BACK! Cuz she's back 😄😃😊

my dude the Cree are still around

@MrJre4491 now all we got is late humans which have the intelligence of a jellyfish

That's why humans domesticated wolves: we're both pack animals that hunt in similar ways, are extremely intelligent, have complex social structures, and have insane endurance. Also pretty much all paleolithic cultures were pretty similar, both in North America and Eurasia and Africa.

I once found a book in the school library on the history of making America, there were so many lies and racist remarks about my ancestors I straight up went to the librarian and said to burn it lol

@@zanelebushgenie270 Remember the name? I wanna see what they got wrong lol.

*boop

Will boop

That is correct! The idea of an alpha wolf Is entirely a myth, but still sadly a popular one. Even the man who coined the term alpha wolf and released that study admitted that it was wrong. Wild wolves have a hierarchy that is more of a family, with the original breeding pair as the leaders. However other wolves in the pack have also been shown to lead in certain circumstances when they've proven to be skilled in a particular task. Their social hierarchy is far more complex than we originally thought.

While outdated and untrue, people keep saying alpha wolf cuz it sounds cool, I guess.

@Mr Bones watches a documentary=wolf expert

@@DrFumbles01 It's actually a little more complicated. Wolves have a wide range of personalities and, arguable, ideologies/ideals. They aren't too smart, but they do have the intelligence to gauge mood and emotions of their species and a few other animals. Sometime their environment or personalities shape their behavior and behavior of their species. So, some are hierarchies, some dictatorial, and some are oligarcial. It just depends on the animal and the environment.

@Mr Bones Which really isn't unlike a family. The term "breeding pair" is becoming increasingly popular for clarification that we are not talking about relationship like a human child with a teacher or like a workplace. It is more akin to our own families where you have your mom and dad, and while there may be some disciplining involved it is really a matter of the parents "raising" their children in a sense that fairly closely resembles the way we do it (or at least used to).

A vultures vomit is so horrible that they use it as a defense mechanism

@@jeffreytoman5202 IKR isn't it so cool?

Save the vultures!

Why can't you?

Brian Landers thanks for the words of advice and I have the education down, I’m just not that tech savvy when it comes to making videos

Environmental science and zoology are also very lucrative fields if you're interested in this stuff

The descendants at least

@@emanuelrojas2 Or got beaten by. (Just like homo sapiens drove all our relatives to extinction)

Dire wolves are extinct. Those are gray wolves. Relatives of the dire wolf, but smaller, and they have longer legs.

Nah dire wolves were more related to the jackal. Its weird but the scientific papers are there, now its just a matter of time before they get published.

Shut up beta

MINNESOTAAAA TIMBERWOLVESSAA

Me too mate

Yes

Indeed but doesn't mean a pack of Timber Wolves couldn't do the same.

Yeah, and grizzlies tend to force wolves away from their own kills.

David Ortiz If healthy grizzly fought 8 wolves or so, even if it lost, the bear would likely take some of the wolves with it to the grave.

The only bane of Grizzlies is probably humans

MrReyno Tanks that’s exactly what would happen with packs of atleast 8 and if some strange reason they attacked the bear at all costs they would definitely win but would probably be missing atleast 2 to half their numbers, but most of the time both animals just try to intimidate for the other to leave the area, 1 angry bear or 9 angry wolves isn’t worth it for the other species

Why?

Why

Why

@Brian Landers hard to see sarcasm tru a screen and people are sometimes fr when they say stuff like this

Feared and hated because of Europe... Sounds like what happened to my ancestors

Honestly back in the day wolves were rightfully feared. Unlike today they were very aggressive, saw humans as prey. It wasnt until we started culling them that wolves naturally started to fear humans for their survival. Nowadays wolves are chill, but just some hundreds of years ago. Dozens or more died every year.
