OMG, Who invited the BEAR?

Who invited the BEAR TO THANKSGIVING?

This is Stephen Colbert's worst nightmare.

Richard C., Did he bring the pecan pie like we asked? OMG, so rude.

Bleeny Bear! I know it's ridiculous, but I loff heem and I want one. No wonder teddy bears and books are so popular.

He probably has a big bear smell, though.

Looks like they had a Beary Thanksgiving.

Authorities said the remains of the family were found around what appeared to be Thanksgiving dinner. When none of them showed up for work on Monday, co-workers became concerned and called police.

The suspect is described as a male with brown hair and brown eyes, approximately eight feet tall and 700 pounds.

Heeheehee, GT!
That's kinda how I eat Thanksgiving dinner - concentrate on mashed pots, gravy & pie - and skip the salad!
Wonder if Mr McBear would like to come to my inlaws tomorrow? Would make an eeenteresting addition to the fam din.

What???? umm... I need more background story..

Aww :) His name is Brutus, and he's one lucky bear!

The girl next to him is going "Oh G*d, why can't we just have normal Thanksgivings?"

For those repulsed: I'm sure the HUMANS weren't eating, and the "Thanksgiving dinner" was meant just for ol' Brutus there. And even if they did eat, I'm sure they took precautions to take a bite before he got to it. ;)

The hippie bear guy was Timothy Treadwell, who was mauled by a bear during their feeding season. This fella definitely doesn't look like the type to maul, however. :D

You know what would be a great idea ...? Thanksgiving SALMON.

This is a strange one...at least the bear is eating the food in front of him, and not the peeps next to him!

WannaSmile
 |  Nov 21, 2007 at 08:47 AM

OK, what it is about him that makes me want to kiss him?

I just watched video about him and read some things on his website and he is just adorable.

Carrie
 |  Nov 21, 2007 at 08:54 AM

What I find funny here is that a few days ago my aunt had a typo in the Thanksgiving planning email to the family, and wrote that she had 4 bears (meaning beers) and that anyone who wanted more should bring their own...we're still razzing her that we'll bring a bear to dinner. And now this post on CO, it's just too coincidental.

Watching the video and knowing the story now absolutely makes my TG! Why can't the news feature more of these good things in order to cleanse our palate from the rest of the news?

Anne Pole
 |  Nov 21, 2007 at 09:04 AM

Well apparently I'm an outcast this time. I want to know how I can get that bear to mY house for Thanksgiving!!!! Did you not notice how whe was saying the prayer before he ate?!?!?! He has mor manners then my brothers kids!

Carrie,
Those big pouty lips! I wanna kiss him too!

bugmom
 |  Nov 21, 2007 at 09:15 AM

I loved the twichy nose action going on there. My cats have announced the bear is not welcome at our (their) house for dinner!!!

Pat
 |  Nov 21, 2007 at 09:19 AM

What a cute... and very messy guest. I'm conflicted.

M.
 |  Nov 21, 2007 at 09:20 AM

That's so sad! I hope that animal doesn't get sick from eating all that nasty people food.

:(
 |  Nov 21, 2007 at 09:25 AM

This belongs in a new category: cute or horrifying! I love the wobbly schnozz but I CRINGED when the guy started to take the pie plate away from him!!! Who takes food away from a friggin BEAR?

krikri
 |  Nov 21, 2007 at 09:31 AM

mmmm mashed potatoes with gravy and pumpkin pie... my favourites!

As far as manners go, at least he didn't leave with any silverware sticking out of his back pocket, and download porn on the family computer.

Now I want mashed potatoes and pumpkin pie for lunch. Sigh, we had Thanksgiving in October. I have to wait until Christmas to eat like this bear!

Laura

OMG how sweet.. Did you guys read that story.. Soooo sweet.

Annie
 |  Nov 21, 2007 at 09:37 AM

OMG!!! I love the work the Grizzly Encounter is doing. Such a wonderful turnaround for those poor captive bears. Check out the link viatrix gave - it will warm your heart - and make you thankful too!

Okay at first I thought this may have come from a commercial or something but thanks to Viatrix for giving us the true facts on Brutus. He is an extremely lucky bear.
I applaud the wonderful people who saved him and the other bear. What a humane thing to do. :)

"Who's been eating mah porridge?"

pyrit
 |  Nov 21, 2007 at 09:48 AM

There's something just wrong and creepy about these people! But the bear... simply too perfectly cute.

EB
 |  Nov 21, 2007 at 09:50 AM

LOL Pyrit... but I don't think Brutus much cares.

Theo
 |  Nov 21, 2007 at 09:54 AM

When the food was gone, he ate the people.

Gregg
 |  Nov 21, 2007 at 10:10 AM

A John Irving Thanksgiving.

I'm surprised that cute bear didn't find those humans interesting, rather than a pile of mashed I'm-not-sure-what-it's-supposed-to-be.

They sure are tastier.

Akane
 |  Nov 21, 2007 at 10:24 AM

Big, sloppy, mashed potato-y kisses!

That's a lovely manicure he has, too.

 |  Nov 21, 2007 at 10:24 AM

Ok, let's pull the wishbone...aha! You lost! YOU get to brush the bear's teeth!

That's kind of awful. He's a bear and he doesn't belong in a house for the amusement of people.

Whiskas
 |  Nov 21, 2007 at 10:32 AM

Wow, this looks just like Thanksgiving at my mother's house. Except the food looks edible, people are laughing, and nobody is is being a drama queen. Other than that, yup, just like mom's.

Decca
 |  Nov 21, 2007 at 10:32 AM

thank you Viatrix (and byant gumble). it's sad that bears end up in these situations for such reasons, but such a gift to humans to be able to interact with them and educate people about them for the good of other bears.

i have a big teddy bear named Noofy (oo as in book) that looks remarkably like this!

anner

I liked it when he gave the sister a big smooch on the forehead. Leaving taters behind.

Bear hug! Bear hug!

Paunchie
 |  Nov 21, 2007 at 10:54 AM

He's better behaved than some of my relatives.

lunacydress
 |  Nov 21, 2007 at 11:20 AM

Oh my goodness you nuffers, the bear doesn't LIVE in the house, and I'm sure that food was preapproved. Jesu!

Otherwise, so cute :D I love the sister smooch

JulieRaven

Viatrix:

Thanks for the link. I pass through there once a year and will stop next time.

When I was in Denali I asked a Ranger if he had any additional advice to avoid Grizzly bears. He suggested I wear a bell so they could hear us coming. He then said you knew you were in Grizzly territory because all of the scat he little bells in it...

muzz,

John Irving Thanksgiving - nice!

Boy if I could I would have a panda (Tai Shan in particular) over for Thanksgiving.

sydney
 |  Nov 21, 2007 at 12:01 PM

I was a little concerned when I first saw this video. I thought a random bear had lumbered in, and they were like "Oh let's feed him!" Thanks for the background info! Now he's cute. =)

Willow
 |  Nov 21, 2007 at 12:11 PM

Brutus rocks like a beast, but I still want the pecan pie.
