Ursus

Having hunted, professionally, all species of bear in Alaska, including polar bear, grizzly bear, giant ursus gyas on the Alaska Peninsula and black bear where-ever, I have a lot of respect for WILD BEARS but no respect for garbage bears nor for bear that think they can live in my backyard and control my life, destroy my proptery and endanger my family. ❋ Unknown (2009)

Weirdly, Jon and I were talking about the etymology of the German word for bear this morning, and how it comes from the word for brown, instead of the latin root ursus or ursa. ❋ Unknown (2010)

Your colleague rev ursus, what church accomodates views like his? but methinks he is a joker or maybe a black bear (ursus) o.u. October 1st, 2008 5: 09pm ❋ Unknown (2008)

I think this thread must be coming to and end very soon so why not recap the garbage that has been written here by the likes of "rev" ursus. ndm, bertie bert and other, smaybe then Laurie you will realise why I think they are so foolish -- Herbert T. writes with reason but he is few and far between - my best wishes for all our futures. ❋ Unknown (2008)

Now then, if you remember back to the Blast Door map that trapped Locke, you may recall this entry in the lower right-hand corner of the map: "Stated Goal: Repatriation accelerated de-territorialization of ursus maritimus polar bear through gene therapy and extreme climate change." ❋ Unknown (2008)

Hominem te agnoscere nequeo, cum tanquam asinus recalcitres, lascivias ut taurus, hinnias ut equus post mulieres, ut ursus ventri indulgeas, quum rapias ut lupus, &c. at inquis formam hominis habeo, Id magis terret, quum feram humana specie videre me putem. ❋ Unknown (2007)

I do but think, that when he comes to be lifted up to her celestial sphere, as her fellow constellation, what a figure Nancy and her ursus major will make together; and how will they glitter and shine to the wonder of all beholders! ❋ Unknown (2006)

Readers who enjoyed the book as children, or in introducing it to their own children, can face the challenge of translating familiar episodes, such as the hunt for the heffalumpus, or Pooh's admission, "Quia ursus pusilli ingenii sum verba difficilia fastidio" ( "For I am a Bear of Very Little Brain, and long words Bother me"). ❋ Unknown (2000)

Quite simply, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has actually prepared a plan to introduce grizzly bears, known by their Latin name as ursus horribilis, into a huge portion of my district. ❋ Unknown (1997)

Democrat or Republican, eastern or western, conservative or liberal, if faced with the possibility of having ursus horribilis introduced into their district, I would be happy if they would stand up, as I have, and vigorously object to this. ❋ Unknown (1997)

The most remarkable of hitherto unknown animals found by David was a species of bear (ursus melanoleucus, the black-white bear) which is a connecting link between the cats and bears. ❋ 1840-1916 (1913)

Virginia Deer, (cariacus virginianus) and Black Bear, (ursus americanus,) are the representative big game animals found in North Carolina, and they are both sufficiently abundant to be an object of sport in the localities in which they abound, in fact, in some sections of the State, the bears often become a nuisance to the farmer on account of their depredations on the hog-pen and sheep-fold. ❋ North Carolina.

The Indian black bear (_ursus labiatus_), we are informed by Jerdon, is found throughout India and Ceylon, from Cape Comorin to the Ganges, chiefly in the hilly and jungly districts. ❋ Unknown (1875)

This latter kind was undoubtedly the species known as the "Siberian bear" (_ursus collaris_); and which has an extensive range throughout most of the countries of Northern Asia. ❋ Mayne Reid (1850)

This animal has been usually regarded as a mere variety of the _ursus arctos_; but without the slightest reason. ❋ Mayne Reid (1850)

In a few days, however, the _ursus syriacus_ was set upon his legs; and the collection was complete. ❋ Mayne Reid (1850)

Those who acknowledge it, are inclined to regard the Syrian bear as a mere variety of the _ursus arctos_; but this theory is altogether incorrect. ❋ Mayne Reid (1850)

One remarkable habit of these bears indicates a very marked difference between them and the _ursus arctos_, with which they have been usually classed; and that is, that they are _fishing-bears_ -- subsisting almost exclusively on fish, which they catch for themselves. ❋ Mayne Reid (1850)
