Brown Bears (Info, Pics and Videos)

[Sully]

Ah ok, makes more sense. Still incredible how concentrated they are, and is a nod to their incredible sense of smell that so many were able to locate the area. 

Given this seems a regular occurrence in terms of the frequency of feeding and thus every bear has likely been there before at one time or another, it reminds me of something I read. I believe it was posted on here, that the bear has a smell version of what I equate to a visuo-spatial sketchpad (a component of a memory theory within psychological study). It stated that they had almost a built in navigation system from smell alone, a smell map one could say. And you can see how effective it is in locating areas of nutrition, and those which served them well in the past. Great stuff. Reply
