Alpo Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 We've all heard "does a bear poop in the woods?" This is a screenshot from the movie Wolverine. How does a bear pee in the woods? This CGI bear lifted his leg on that tree like he was a dog. Do they really do that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watab kid Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 (edited) well ....my answer to that question was alway " sorta" , we always camped in the woods - generally remote to some degree and they always pooped in our camp site , so yes and no , came back to add that i think they pooped in our campsite because we had all our food stuffs secured out of their reach - in a tree or off shore in the boundary waters and in a bear locker [in voyagers park] had plenty of bears in camp area when cooking and such , Edited February 11 by watab kid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpo Posted February 11 Author Share Posted February 11 Well, according to the National Park service, they don't. They don't pee by lifting their leg on a bush like a dog. https://www.nps.gov/katm/learn/photosmultimedia/brown-bear-frequently-asked-questions.htm#24 Said you can tell boy bears from girl bears by watching them pee. Boys pee straight down in front of them and girls pee behind them. There's a photo of a girl bear peeing, but I hesitate to post it here. But the grizzly bear in the movie lifting his leg is apparently nonsense. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
