There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Peter, this video doesn't give any new information concerning that event, I gave the link because the animals are shown in several new positions, obviously the camera trap made more than 2 already known photos. This video decribes in general terms the behavior of the bears from Russian Far East. Its said that when the bears during the autumn can't find enough of their normal food they tern to other protein sources - more especialy meat, they could steal dogs from the villages or appropriate kill from tigers.. The bear in the second half of the video in his hunger for animal proteins has killed tree dogs in a village.
If I find more information for Rashel and that particular gigantic bear I'll post, for now no news. I guess that that gigantic bear is still alive because now is not bear hunting season. As we know Ussuriland during the summer monsoon rains is covered by immensely lush tropical-like vegetation and any observations are almost impossible, during summer due to heat and humidity, moscquitos etc even majority of hunters and forest travelers avoid entering the taiga and prefer to stay home in the towns.
Shir Babr, I think you have first to read prehistory of all this events from last year, the act of displacement is described clearly by the biologist and the director of that forest unit Alexander Batalov, the man who made this photos and installed the camera traps. I only translated the article, no coments from my side, the topic was already widely discused last year.
