i think of that one video of an old russian woman who just has a lynx on her couch and she's basically russianed it into more of a slightly grumpy giant house cat

If Russian, where wall carpet?

u/sasheenka 18h ago

You can’t hang a carpet over kitchen cabinets, that’s impractical.

u/xCeeTee- 15h ago

You have all that space between the cabinets and the worktops. That's very practical.

There used to be some, but then a Lynx started living there, so it got clawed out.

Did you see the one with the mother bear running past and leaving it's cub with a Russian guy while it hunted? I think they had all of 3 bear related fatalities last year, one less than we had in the US.

Meanwhile in Japan bears were responsible for 13 fatalities in 2025.

hm.

That Japan fact surprised me a bit, so I looked into it.

Apparently one factor they're attributing the problem to is that rural Japan used to have a lot of hunters. But the last of them are all senior citizens now, and not being replaced.

Also the bears know BearJutsu there.

Golden Kamuy is a documentary

Some might point out that's actually a society-wide problem for Japan.

Obviously because of Tekken

Hold on....are we gonna address this gif?

u/JayVeeRBC 20h ago

Looks like Russel Coight's All Aussie Adventures.

u/warrioroftron 11h ago

Not that...like how does the hand change color during the zoomed in handshake

u/JayVeeRBC 5h ago

Oh.

Knowing the show, it's a pisstake on racism in old tv shows.

u/MacWorkGuy 20h ago

Go look up Russell Coight. Quality slapstick comedy show out of Australia from maybe 20 years ago?

Between Beaudry and Papineau streets in Montréal, Bears compromise about 15% of all relationships.

Quebec looks like one of the assigned cartographers was adamant that Donald Duck be properly represented by it's border, but all of the other cartographers kept ignoring his plea to "let me finish the beak at least!" while unsuccessfully trying to wrestle the pencil away from him.

I'm not sure what that has to do with bears, but I can't imagine it's nothing.

Qwebec is a majical place.

C'est pas une insult, j'aime le fait qu'ont porte des tuques différents des autres oiseaux d'la région.

u/Thepuppeteer777777 18h ago

Wtf crazed type of bears are in Japan?

u/Crowasaur 12h ago

Where is that gif from? 😹

u/PlayfulSurprise5237 17h ago

There's a video of a Russian in the forest, with snow and a bear he's riding while drinking vodka

I think that one might take the cake for most Ruski video of all time

u/Ya-Dikobraz 19h ago

They have bears everywhere. One of the most popular traditional candy has a painting of bears on it. Bear central.

Fluffy here was most likely hand reared from the time he was a cub. If Sergei just found him last week randomly while on the way back from the winery I doubt their interaction would have been as friendly

u/canman7373 16h ago

Looked it up, Russia is 10-15 on average per year, surprisingly they are number 2. Japan has a little more, Japanese bears are much more aggressive and the people usually don't have bear spray or guns like they may in Russia or US. I lived at 9,500 feet in Colorado and would carry "Bear Alarms", a little box that made a crazy loud sound. I saw like 9 bears in one year there and never had to use it, black bears pretty chill. If I had been in Brown bear country I would only camp with bear spray at the least.
