BEARS - SOUNDS OF NATURE

Bears are found all over the world -- and hopefully most of us know how to recognize bear prints and other signs of bears. 

We may not all be as familiar with the sounds that a bear makes. They growl, they grunt, they huff, they squeal.  There are several places to go looking for recordings of bears. Here are a couple to get you started. [Or to refresh your memory].

First is the site About Bears. On their sound effects page they cover several types of bear : Brown, black, grizzly, koala and polar; including the sounds of cubs.

Another interesting site is from the government done by the National Park Services. These are interesting as they include the sounds of a bear moving through the area where the recording equipment was located and also one running past the equipment.

The last recording on the page is labeled as a "mystery sample", supposed to be a bear. Take a listen and tell me what you think.

Anyhow, hope you enjoy the mini "lesson".
