    Can G bears climb trees?

    Looks like a grizzly. Grizzly or not, the speed and agility is unbelievable.

    Wow, my perception of bears, running downhill, trees, and safety is now gone. The speed is unbelievable! Those bears would give a lumberjack climbing a pole a run for their money!

    If they want to get up a tree look out. From what I know a bear can run down hill as fast as it can on flat ground pretty scary

    No human can out pace that momma either down the hill or up the tree. That's a strong reminder to respect the power and danger of these animals. Thanks for the post - I needed that.

    I watched the vid a couple times. I'm not sure that is a grizz sow? She is definitely a fat sow, and black bear sows can be fierce when protecting cubs from boars! I was charged by a sow black bear many years ago, and she only turned away when the muzzle flash from my 12ga went past her head! Moosin

    Looking at the head of the sow, I'm pretty certain it's a black bear.
