Romanian Bears - Romania

[bbphnix]

one of the few things I am proud of the government for doing are the policies with respect to bears;

license fee of several hundred dollars and quota of 300/year; perfectly fine population control;

keeping bears is rendered illegal and they're wild habitat is protected; Romania has one of the largest percentages of national territory converted into protected reservation;

Romanians have traditionally been at peace with nature; that's definitely something the West can learn from us; :)

haida la braşov

[SacaluBrasov]

I live in Brasov and I can say that we have more bears in Brasov than Germany, France an England together :) If you want to se the bears in Brasov go at 10 PM in Răcădău quarter (district) at Jepilor street :)

[alina2681]

Bears act like these because they are too many (Romania has 60% of the bear population in Europe) and as they can't find any more food in the forest are forced to go in the cities...Another good reason is that many STUPID-STUPID-STUPID people (both locals and turists) feed them with swets and pizza and so they teach bears not to be affraid of humans.

[journeyman47]

Brasov could learn something from Yellowstone Park and how they deal with bears foraging in the dumpsters. They designed bear-proof bins, and now, no more bear problem.

[bbphnix]

@journeyman47 I think they have started doing that recently; I think I've seen some beard proof bins in Transylvania;

[beatingofmyheart1]

the number of bears kept in improper conditions was under 100 and they have all been moved to reservations now

so I don't see the "carnage" here considering Romania has 5000-6000 bears and the number is growing, while in Western Europe you can count them on one hand. how about doing a documentary on how they killed all their bears?

[ppnvrd]

Who? Bears or turks?

[gaelgeseomra]

@ppnvrd lol hands up

[Mickeyc88]

this is wrong! how could someone kill something so beautiful?!? hunt rabbits or somethin! there are millions and millions and millions of rabbits! you couldnt make them extinct if you tried! Why all the rarist get killed?!

[bbphnix]

@Mickeyc88 you sir are an idiot; the bears in Transylvania are much in danger of going extinct as dogs are; 

[Mickeyc88]

@bbphnix Ur mums an idiot u cunt...go kill some dogs then smart fuck! Love the way people give it the big balls in writing!

[bbphnix]

@Mickeyc88 in writing? I'd tell you this face to face;

bears in Romania are nowhere near going extinct; "Why all the rarist get killed?!" ---> did we even watched the same video?

[monstermansuper]

I live in braosv but i never seen a bear in the city.only at the news

[mastermindsro]

The bears are "shooted" only with anesthetics and then transported far from the city so they don't come back.. where they are dangerous for people and mostly for kids..

It's a stupid thing to say that Romanians are wild animal killers.. The population of bears is the largest in Europe and is growing, the Wolves here are more than in any other country in the world and is growing, many different birds are protected in Danube Delta Reservation which has a surface of over 3500 km2..

[vodahadrian]

indeed, i just remembered about Mussolini, Mafia and othe nice things, thanks!

Between: do you have wild animals in your country? or they are "finished " many years ago?

i heard that now you are eating horses after you were eating all from the wood!

only in italy is possible a such a awful thing: to eat a such a noble animal. a horse!

[ghita1964]

Frumoasa tara avem! Pacat ca-i locuita!

[BannedIP]

@ghita1964 Pleaca dobitocule, si n-o mai locui, din cauza retarzilor ca tine e in situatia actuala, putorilor,stiti doar sa va lamentati!!

[bulichi]

These ladies are having sexual encounters with wild beasts

[Sargathia]

one day Chewbacca will return to his homeland and the Bears will conquer Transylvania again

[journeyman47]

I spent a month in Romania last year and never heard of this problem. Where are the bears in captivity? Any towns in particular? I'll be going back this year and I'd like to find them so I can help them, or at least video them to shame the "owners".

[adriandemarco]

bears in captivity can be anywhere in Romania but there're often hidden from public view. anyway, if you want to find out more about bears in Romania, you should go to this new Bear Sanctuary created in Zarnesti, that is near the city of Brasov. The people there can answer all zour questions on the matter and you'll get to see plenz of bears. There was even a footage on this topic on Animal Planet.

[journeyman47]

Thanks for the good info. Much appreciated.

Take care!

(P.S. I see the Romanian keyboards still have the "z" and "y" keys reversed! Heh heh.)

[adriandemarco]

you're welcome! as for the keyboard, it's because I use a French keyboard at the moment. Probably that's what you used in Romania too, cause there's no such thing as Romanian keyboard, just settings for Romanian language maybe :)

[journeyman47]

Ah, yes, the French keyboard... it's funny, every European country has its own little keyboard idiosyncracies.. it's like they all took a look at them and said, "Mon Dieu! We cannot 'ave ze "Y" zere! It must go here!" And of course now it's too late to ever change, not that they ever would... so every tourist who emails home has to fuss with the stupid things...

Anyway I can never keep track of which country has what letters where, so I just bring my own little notebook 'puter instead!

[adriandemarco]

that's the best sollution, bring your notebook. This way you can 'ave ze "Y" wherever zu want:) but where are u from? UK? I'd supose that from the subtle irony about the French:)

[journeyman47]

The U.S. actually. We have a similar attitude towards our French cousins.

[davazno1]

you are wrong ...in romania you could find the largest population of bears and in all well preserved fauna

[davazno1]

it costs 15 000 euro to shoot a bear in the hunting season ...last week a man was killed by a bear ...things like this happen from time to time because of their large numbers ...most hunters,poachers,and abussers are foreigners who come shot 20 animals for tropheis and still blame us ...very few romanians dislike animals

[davazno1]

the west wiped out large animals ...germans imported wolfes and bears from romania..this is a total bullshit movie ..it makes outsiders think we are savage mindles ,heartles bastards ,worst offenders against bears and animals are the gypsys ..especialy the bulgarian gypsys

[ygarosa]

There are some brave men who need to shoot inocent animals to be called hunters ...

[davazno1]

anyone can shoot animals ...there is nothing brave in shoting animals

[ygarosa]

That's what I said. We are supposed to be superior and look how we destroy everything around us. Soon there won't be much left around us ...

[mackcx613]

scuze, nu stiu cine esti, poate celalalt comentariu suna pt tine, dar nu e la persona ta direct, ma refeream la situatia generala din romania. inca o data, sint oameni ca lumea, dar din pacate majoritatea....

[davazno1]

despre ce vorbesti ?si ce stii tu de majoritatea ? majoritatea cunostintelor mele is oameni normali cu capul pe umeri ...

[EuroFootix]

dazno man, bears and wolfs dont attack humans, they are afraid of humans, and in romania people are not afraid of bears who come in towns, i went to brasov and i feed a bear, and i tell you they are more calm and pacific that a dog

[davazno1]

You feed bears ?They are unpredictible , they killed many people , but as usual ,always people are to blame , people like you .Bears are animals that must live in forestes far from people , not in towns or around streets .

[EuroFootix]

bro ye, but it is not me who brouth them in town, they come here, and idiot bear attack humans only when thei have cubs, they just protect cubs, studie them and you will see that wolfs and bears are afraid of humans, here in brasov bear come hee and they are friendly with humans, i even touch one, not in zoo, and even the lady in the video said that she feed one

[davazno1]

Esti roman ?

[EuroFootix]

da sunt roman

[davazno1]

Pai si de ce imi tot scrii in engleza ?

[EuroFootix]

ai vreo problema? sau nu vezi ca vorbesc cu persoane care vorbesc engleza? de unde era sa stiu ca si tu esti roman

[vodahadrian]

haha, bai, sunteti nebuni haha

[yago9]

[vodahadrian]

ce naiba..pai, daca e second :))..

[1543154311]

just moved new area

this video was good hm

[IRIMIA1]

cute bears

[vinti2003]

Why are not bears in western Europe psoiyanimation ? Why are such many bears in Romania?... Because European Union has respected the laws and Romania not?

[vinti2003]

And apropos the savages countries.... Do you know how many pedophiles are comming in Romania in every year... from western Europe ?

So, shut the fuk up !

[ianiiyl]

UmofoN "All European should die. Always like to ruin everything."

I'm European and this is very crazy statement you made. Maybe you should stop thinking too much about politics and history and just take vacation from computer and junk food news? that's what I need myself:)

[binwei]

This would be good for the Colbert Report.

[vodahadrian]

who's mr Colbert? Your doctor?

[raulitech]

the bears should be left alone in the forest to fend for themselves as they have been designed to do.

[MVLisTheCleaner]

What? Bears leave in the forest. Desert? You're insane. These bears are living in the desserts. ;-)

[dowling1981]

MV - You are not very polite. Why do you question my portentions?

[roygbiv330]

they must not feed the bears.

[VivaciousVillain]

lol bears are almost the coolest they come in a close second behind sharks

[GreenGoody]

This is why I hate the majority of humans that roam on this earth.

We earthlings are some of the most privileged beings in the galaxy, but also the most humane. How is that so? We shall soon find out.

[fr3thinker]

The bastards who can stick needles into the eyes of animals (or anyone) are evil bastards. We shouldh't have to rely good people like these rescuers in this world. So much other cruelty to animals (and to people) still goes on and it's all evil. Shooting is an evil - especially if done for no other reason than for the thrill of it or for profit. So much destruction and pain is in nature already without man adding to it like this. Maybe we should just see man as a product of nature though.

[XtremeMarco]

i am romania and i agree with you but do you know what hapend with this bastard ceausescu?? he was shoot at the wall with his wife

[blackfootnawaho]

a quik little question, why is there scientology commercials beside all your vids?

[richiefrost]

here in bc canada. near whistler ski resort an black comb mountain. there is so much development for the olympics that the black bears an brown bears are been killed by cars, more than ever. because the developments are in places of the bears habitat, their home. so the bears have to look for new territory. grizzly bears are the ones coming down to our towns. so soon there will be grizzly bears killed. because the grizzly bears see's humans as food. developments are in grizzly bear habitat.
