The person that wrote that has to be a white male. Same unthinking mindset that says things like, so what if META mines your data, you're already sharing everything about yourself online AND, "if you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear" when privacy is violated.

The first bear had the momentum, If you reel it slowly you can see that bear leaped onto the trunk like its life depended on it (probably the case). Black bears (all bears, in fact) can easily climb trees, I'm sure Heart Bear is no exception.
