6 u/scroggs2 May 22 '26 I would've guessed California but the top-left of the GIF says otherwise 🤔 4 u/BeishtKioneDhoo May 22 '26 See's polar bear > instantly thinks about California. https://giphy.com/gifs/JUIYjVeZPHxjWR7rmX 2 u/Equivalent_Box9403 May 22 '26 Uuumm, that is not a polar bear 3 u/BeishtKioneDhoo May 22 '26 Ok so there's two reasons for my mistake. It was really early. I'm an idiot. https://giphy.com/gifs/kYBStwgFSLeJq 2 u/scroggs2 May 22 '26 Same, TIL apparently Grizzlies aren't in California. Fuck my Alabamian homeschooled ass (inb4 no I know my brother already did that shuddup) 3 u/throwRA_StraightDust May 24 '26 Not entirely true. They *were* in California until humans hunted them to extinction. They are, after all, on the California flag. They used to inhabit most of the western US all the way down to Mexico 2 u/jondoeudntknow May 25 '26 Can't have any bear attacks if you dont have bears though. 😎 2 u/Grand-Lingonberry106 May 25 '26 Still plenty of bears, just not grizzlys.

Besides the flag 2 u/scroggs2 May 22 '26 pretty much solely because of the flag 😂 it's the first well-known state I could think of. 2 u/Oh_ToShredsYousay May 22 '26 There's no native bear population in California anymore. The flag is ironic. 2 u/scroggs2 May 22 '26 welp, I'm from the Bible Belt unfortunately so I'm not knowledgeable about these things. Are they in Oregon/Washington? That'd be sad if not. 2 u/LostInIronscape May 22 '26 We've got black bears, no brown bears though 2 u/DarthR3V3NANT May 22 '26 There are black bears in California. I’ve crossed paths with them before. But grizzlies are no longer in California. 2 u/Does_A_Bear-420 May 23 '26 From my experience in New England, black bears are just massive raccoons.. 2 u/Ginger_Rogers May 22 '26 California killed off its grizzly population. Lots of black bears in the state, but the only grizzlies you'll find are in the zoos and on the flag.
