  • Mark used to live next door to me here in Sacramento.He is one of the best.

  • Great Job Mark Benkert, inspirational!

  • Sad day for the Bear. For the so called petpsyhco Licking and Yawning are a sign of Stress in animals NOT Calming Signals.

  • It is a good video, it is sad. For the so called petpsychic Licking and Yawning are a sign of stress in a animal not calming signals.

  • Very sad story, but it wasn't the Forest Service that was responsible for the bear's death, it was Roland Takayama of the Department of Fish and Game.

  • he is my uncle and my aunt called me to check it out

  • This video is so beautiful and touching! Thank you creators of it and Mark for the sculpture!

    Do you notice how the bear is licking and yawning? Those are called calming signals. They are body language an animal uses to calm themselves & others. This bear was very docile and wise.
