There should be a tunnel built under the highway for wildlife animals to cross safely. Poor bear.

Hopefully we get more wildlife overpasses built over time. A tunnel wouldn't be great because plenty of animals would be nervous about entering an enclosed space with potential predators. Plus possible flooding.

On a dark desert highway, cool breeze in my fur. The smell of vehicles emissions rising up through the air. Up ahead in the distance, I saw a thousand headlights!
That is just great having a graphics crawl on top of the bear's image.
The bear is not lost we have just taken all the land away.

Exactly. Humans encroach on their natural habitat and then are so alarmed when wildlife do what they normally do in their natural habitat. Roam and forage, forage and roam.

If it was a person traffic would not have stop lol.
Bear is going to be really surprised at food prices after their long hibernation.
Least these people stopped for the bear unlike that person that just hit & killed a bear in the cajon pass.
Probably there was a market across the freeway but the bear didn’t want to risk of getting hit by a car, stay safe beautiful bear 🐻
Even the bears can’t bear California anymore….
Zookeeper: Has anyone seen Arthur?
the crawler obstructs the video, do you screen these clips before you post them?
Thank God, good to be aware❤
Imagine fixing your flat on the shoulder and seeing that.
Don’t touch the bear, let the women who feel safer with bears handle it 😂
Poor baby. 🥺😭
I cant bear the thought of being there
bear : this is so embarrassing ... raccoon said the free food stand was right over here.
“Where’s those women looking for me?” 😂
Cue the _bear_ puns.

Bear: where's my home?
We love our California bears! They are waking up from hibernation in search of food. Unfortunately, due to human pollution, the lakes and rivers have no fish. Bears 🐻 like to swim and eat fish. The. valleys have no fruits, nuts, and berries. Just the concrete jungle. He is waking up to traffic, car, accidents and human pollution. There are no antelope left in antelope Valley. The only thing on Pearblossom Highway is crumpled steel . Shame on California! Less human pollution, and more environmentally friendly Wildlife 🙏❤️🐾
I couldn't bear that for 5 minutes 😊
Would they stop for a person?
The traffic was unbearable.
Dang, even the bear is protesting.
Bear in mind that he's most likely just very hungry
Bear: darn L.A traffic.
I live south of the freeway that separates us from the bears, everyone living north of the freeway is in bear country so they get visited all the time.
Happy to see the bear turned back and got away from the cars. Beautiful bear, always exciting to see wildlife .
They should build a tunnel under the freeway so bears and other animals can go from one side to the other.
Poor bear. . . ❤
Oh... THAT kind of bear. Thought maybe a new pride parade.
He heard the women are choosing 🐻 bears over men.

Humans aren't that bad. They actually waited for the bear to cross over, and didn't scrape past him.

California will now build a wildlife crossing at that spot to keep the animals safe.
It was a clear case of BEAR polar disorder
If the world is not bizarre enough it seems the SCP story about bears is also coming true. If u get rid of one bear 2 bears appear in its place.
It was bear-ly an inconvenience.😅
Poor bear. 😕 They're instinctual. Even when they attack humans (which is actually SUUUPER rare), you can bet that it's because their instincts and adrenaline are commanding them to do so. Freeways, technology, and all that scary stuff must be utterly bonkers to them. In only a few hundred years, they've had to endure mankind's "growth". It must seem as if "metal beasts" have taken over, but they also don't really "come charging at us" (the bears), and obviously, the metal monsters travel in giant hordes. Weird stuff for a bear to witness.
“That was not unbearable”
Bear trying to find them California girls
This how sad the world is ....Poor bear standing in a busy high way ....we have taken where they belong man has driven them out of their home ......smh
I feel sorry for the bear too, poor thing has to live among Californians.
❤ 🐻
Its a dang shame the animals are running out of real estate to be able to live peacefully because humans has just taken over this planet
That dude Chris talks too much. He must love the sound of his own voice. Always wants to hear the sound of his own voice, wants to be heard. Always talking about himself. He does that show at 2pm called "Off the clock" and he over talks the other host,it's ridiculous!
If it was a crackhead drivers would’ve kept going but since it’s a bear everyone stops and just admires its presence hahaha
he was looking for boo boo
Shouldn’t you edit things so the news crawl at the bottom of the screen does not blot out the very thing that is the reason for the story?

Leave the Bears alone!
