Animals that stumble across covert wildlife cameras often disregard the strange object and go on after a brief period of interest. Some animals, though, are more inquisitive than others and approach the cameras to look inside. A wild bear experienced a similar incident in Boulder, Colorado, a city located in the steep mountains of the United States.
A black bear’s “selfies,” captured on covert cameras, were recently revealed by the Boulder Open Space and Mountain Parks (OSMP) management. Despite having been captured around the middle of November 2022, these images were posted on Twitter on January 24. Cute selfies are currently quite popular.
A Twitter user commented on them, saying, “Listen, I know bears are big giant things with teeth and claws that can run and swim and maul your face off but they’re also adorable and smart and funny”. The bear trying hard to make it the cover page of a wildlife magazine”, another person noted.

Over 46,000 acres, nine cameras have been set up by the OSMP. Will Keeley, a senior wildlife biologist at OSMP, stated that placing wildlife cameras is crucial. “The motion-detecting cameras provide us a unique opportunity to learn more about how local species use the landscape around us. These cameras play an important role in helping OSMP staff identify important wildlife areas. The information we collect from them is used to recommend habitat-protective measures to help protect sensitive natural areas.”
