OP is silly... No. Bears do not have self-aware sentience just because one bear killed itself. As for killing the cub, it sounds as though the mother was just trying to free it, but killed it. Lemmings run off cliffs all the time. We should infer from this that they have read too much Chaucer and believe paradise truly is lost and the only way to save it is to fly.....

Thanks for sharing the news story though.

Very very doubtful that the bear ran into a wall with intention of inflicting self-harm, rather, it was kept in a cage its whole life and was very unfamiliar with the whole concept of running and object permanence in the first place. It hit the wall and died. It was a messed up bear. Farmer's fault. End of story. Let's attempt not to personify animals because of this.

Wow that's fucked up. Someone's going to hate me for this I guess but why is it that asian cultures so often have no regard what so ever for treating animals in a humane fashion? I don't care whether it's a bear, dog, cat, cow or a pig it's just a really messed up way of treating other living beings. Makes me sick to my stomach tbh.

Chinese have no respect for animals at all, that's pretty much a fact... hell they hardly have any respect for human life.

We're no better in how we treat food animals though.

Didn't I just say I don't care whether it's a dog or a cow? I know for a fact that the animals here are treated much better than in practically all of asia, and that the west in general has tighter restrictions on how you farm animals.

Maybe this instance of drilling holes in animals and keeping them alive is actually illegal, I sure hope it is.

lol there's been so much debate around this in sweden you wouldn't believe it. Two thirds of swedes oppose fur farming in general and thinks it should be illegalized.

But yeah their inhumanity is just as sickening.

Heres a link to a Dutch website which rates countries in terms of animal cruelty. No its not in english, but im sure you can figure out which countries are which.

That said, is what is attested to here actually legal?


A healthy bear has a nice thick skull

For this bear, Its very possible its bone structure was very weak at that point because of malnourishment. As well as other conditions that may have resulted because of the head trauma.

People making these racist generalizations about the Chinese are starting to get to me. Comments exactly like "Chinese have no respect for animals at all, that's pretty much a fact... hell they hardly have any respect for human life." are turning this thread into complete shit as I am very offended by this seeing as how I'm a Chinese American. Keep the races out of this please as a lot of these comments that sound like this add nothing to the conversation and pisses others off.

No wonder Greece is first in that list... Most ppl in agricultural areas / villages are animals themselves so the "law of the jungle" still applies....

That doesn't fix the problem. In fact you should be reading more about it and do what you can to prevent / stop it.

Actually on some farms They have a hole drilled into the cows stomach, you can read online the purpose. But the Animial has a "plug" to keep it from getting infected. And the farmers are very aware that having it open can cause infections.
