Why is honey associated with bears? You’d think people would make honey bottles in the shape of bees.

my favourite thing is probably the scientific name of the Grizzly bear. 

It’s Ursus arctos horribilis. “ursus” meaning bear in Latin and “arctos”, bear in Greek.

so essentially a grizzly is a “horrible bear bear.”

The Eurasian Brown Bear is Ursus arctos arctos

So literally “Bear Bear Bear”. The most bear a bear can be. 

So bear. Much roar. Wow.

Also! The Arctic Circle is named for the bears, not the other way ‘round. It’s the Circle With Bears In, and the Antarctic is the Circle (and continent) Away From Bears.

I think we should all start referring to things by their proximity to bears.

That first maned wolf is a model.

the white-tailed deer one is probably an inaccurate scale for ur average white-tailed deer, as that looks to be a key deer (basically a smaller subspecies of white-tailed deer endemic to the florida keys)

hey quick question what the fuck? hey, just, just a real quick question, what the Fuck

don’t act like you don’t know exactly what’s going on

fair point. let me amend my question: WHY the fuck

how did this post miss the best 3 ones:

But why’s nobody sitting with the three least unsettling? By not even having faces the cactus and jellyfish are probably the only ones that aren’t uncanny and disquieting.

Sure Pelagia noctiluca has a “significantly painful” sting but we know there’s lots of humans that freaky
