A bear cub in Northern Minnesota is getting called out by researchers for being a "twerp."
The Voyageurs Wolf Project on Friday shared video on social media from one of its trail cameras in the Voyageurs National Park area in Northern Minnesota, which featured a bear cub bugging its mom and then attacking the trail camera.

Children annoying their parents everywhere. lol
First the cub slams into the camera and it must have made a loud noise, because mama bear immediately looks up and looks around.
The little cub goes skying up after some small limbs and falls towards mama bear and she is just like, Get off Yo! *thump*
Then the cub, attracted to the obviously non natural appearance of the trail cam (camo paint jobs don’t fool animals) runs back for a second matchup with it.
Cute!
Trail cameras emit a frequency from their processor and power supply at around 15hz and then multiples of that as harmonics. So, 15, 225, 5.625 Mhz, and so on. The wildlife can hear 15Hz and 225Hz. Some echo locating wildlife hear into the UHF range. Unshielded consumer electronics like trail cameras sound like a constant whistle to animals with radiated emissions.
That cub needs Ritalin. LOL
People are twerps, baby bears are cute.
That cub has a really bad case of the “terrible two’s”.
Poor mother bear. Lol
Bear cub was disappointing that there was no cameraman snack behind the lens

Not challenging that by any means but how can what it sounds like to animals be confirmed?
Over the years I’ve lost several cameras to the darn things chewing on them, and a few more times where they just swatted them and left. Most of the time they are set on single frame so I don’t get film of the experience, just ears and maybe an eye!
Spectrum analyzer, appropriate receiving antenna, and output hooked to speaker. You can see it as snow on an old tube style television or AM radio. Every animal has a hearing range in Hz and Mhz. Sea going creatures have very low range hearing. Those low range frequencies travel great distances in water. Humans can’t hear it. Same with bats. They have a very high range of hearing over short distances because the sound waves don’t travel very far in the atmosphere. Most mammals fall inside the middle from just below humans to way above.
That is one of the theories of why Bigfoot is never caught on a trail cam!
On a serious note, I was just reading an article with wonderful photos of animals caught on trail cams in Northern Minnesota (mostly along the North Shore of Lake Superior).
They included a mountain lion and a badger - both very rare in Minnesota.
Think of what could happen when you have a F18 on glideslope (3watts) at say 133.825 Mhz. Someone on board ship turns on an elevator motor at 460 volts and 30 amps. The motor emits noise around 133Hz. As a result the glideslope signal will just get stomped over and not work and the F18 has lost its life.
Thise machines all around us make a lot of noise in a lot of ranges that animals can hear. Old power supplies used to do this in the human hearing range. Remember turning on a device and hearing a very slight low pitch squeal?
I guess the sound would be like that for animals that can hear above 20 kHz.
Boys will be boys. That little cub needs a sibling.
Smarter than the average bear.

More likely the cub found it by smell. The person that placed smelled like a meal when they touched the camera.
