    You could get lost for hours on YouTube watching “extremely intelligent” bears. They’re kind of just really smart animals. The “extremely intelligent” ones are usually just attributing their experience with humans being more common. Like the bears of Yosemite. They all are professionals at open car doors you leave unlocked. Love bears.

    It’s funny how we humans are unable to bear (pun intended) the fact that H. sapiens species aren’t the exclusive bearers (another pun intended) of intelligence, so when, say, a bear or a cow or any other non-human living being, shows undeniable traits of intelligence, we’re mostly rendered surprised-Pikachu. Lol
