It's impossible that they could hurt me

I'll never understand the evolutionary advantage of nature developing the friendliest fluffy soft ears and putting them on a 200kg apex predator.

They were cozing up to humans for the title of "ultimate hunting duo apex" but because they don't hunt during winter so the wolves won the contest.

I meeeean, lookin at this then the top of my bald ol head and not taking into account any other very valid arguments, I can see why people would choose bear over man in woods.

I don’t get it

The ears are cute

Ah, thanks. Unfortunately the real estate 6-12 inches south of those ears is ever so slightly less cute

The fur covers their ears to prevent the screams of the people they're mauling from damaging their eardrums.

Because they hunt by using their three-dimensional sense of smell.

An apex predator shouldn't have 30mph running speeds and 3d smell-o-vision. There is no God...

Whatever you got to tell yourself buddy. Don't worry, I'll mock you with your funeral.

The irresponsible pitbull owners mindset right there.

But they’re just a bear. You can trust them being brought into the house and left with the kids.
