A YouTube user has added a disco tune to the otherwise very scientific video by the U.S. Geological Survey Northern Divide Bear Project:
Dancing Grizzly
Video Description: Grizzly bear vigorously rubbing on a tree regularly used by other bears in Glacier National Park. USGS Northern Divide Bear Project remote video by J.Stetz/A.Macleod. August 12, 2006. Rubbing is a form of chemical communication. DNA analysis of hair collected from natural rub trees is used to identify individual bears and census the population.
There are more videos here:
Use of remote camera systems to investigate efficiency of DNA-based sampling methods. U.S. Geological Survey. In this video the bear looks in the camera first as if it is suspecting something.
Bears are fascinating creatures. I have a posted a number of videos of different Bear Species at Northern Trek in Cleveland Zoo on my travel web site Hit the Road - See America and the World. None of them compares to the U.S. Geological Survey videos, of course.
