This is just my observation. I grew up in the Pacific Northwest and have seen several blacks bears. The bears I saw were kind of lumbering and heavy. A few years ago, we vacationed in Big Bend National Park and stayed at the Chisos Mountain Lodge. We saw a couple of black bears in the parking lot in the early morning hours. Black bears down south look to me to be longer limbed and thinner (think a toilet paper tube with four pipe cleaners stuck in for legs). They look like they can haul A over steep terrain.
What a breathtaking video and yes I have read bears are able to rock climb.To see the young one crawling up,feeling for fissures in a rock wall is just incredible daring and brave.
Pretty impressive. Thanks for sharing. I've seen plenty of bears (up close and personal) but I've never seen anything like that!
