Bear vs Cat

They speak french and i'd say they're from Québec.

Hard to recognize their slang sometimes !

Trees are wrong for it to be Vietnam. I think Quebec is defiantly more like. I does look and act like a North American Black bear.

Definitely, it's French Canadian from Quebec... I know what I am talking about. I speak with the same accent as they do.

That cat is lucky. The bear was hungrier for trash than cat. Had it been the other way around, it wouldn't have been as much of a "vs" video.

Yay, leaving garbage on the porch so wild animals become fearless of humans and end up getting shot when someone's kid gets mauled.

People are dumb.

Yes, they are French Canadians :)

The adult is cheering for Mimine, her cat. Just before the end, she says "oooops, my tomatoes and cucumbers" and "it ran away with our garbage bag!"

That is some wacky, slurred French. I'm fluent and I could barely make out what she's saying.

Also interesting are the Japanese subtitles. It's not an actual translation of what she's saying. It's just a bunch of Japanese words and phrases that sound similar.

The first thing she says "translates" to something like "perverted elder sister" in Japanese. (Eroi oneesan)

When she calls to the cat "vas-y memen = go memen! (memen is the cat's name)" it sounds like "majime men," (majime = sincere, men = noodles) SINCERE NOODLES, SINCERE NOODLES!

Silly!

I haven't watched the video (clunky old computer), but the text on the still screen is Japanese.

Er, I guess the cat's name is actually Mimine, which makes a lot more sense.

Yes the cats's name is Mimine. But the rest sounds like they played the Canadian French tape backwards.
Incompréhensible!

Yes, it's always hilarious when pets are put in mortal danger because the owners are stupid.

Oh would've been so hilarious and great for the child to see if the cat had gotten eaten by the bear.

she is saying :

it wasnt really a good idea... incredible!...(cat starting to run)
lets go mémene(the cat name)x4...mémene, come here.. "laught"
ooohh my cucumber, my tomatoes. he is gone why the garbage bag

i am a from quebec and i dont really understand why she is saying all this but i guess she is a bit hysterical

Wacky, slurred French? I am utterly insulted by that. That's the way we talk here, a French that evolved differently from the French in France, and is just as legitimate.

"Incompréhensible" my ass!!

Agreed, this is just sad. I would be worried about my cat, or any cat, out there.

Expect, of course, the cat is fine. So instead of moaning about what might have happened, how enjoying what ACTUALLY happened?

I guess they won't let their precious KID out to play anytime soon.

Do not leave a big bag of trash just sitting on the front porch in an area with bears. Cat was in no danger.

Be worried about the bear! It's one silly ol' black bear. Not a momma with cubs, not a grizzly. Cats have attacked and chased black bears up trees plenty of times. Rowr!

clearly overdubbed - what you are hearing is not what took place - either that or there is much more to the story

Unfortunately, when I grew up in Canada, I was taught Parisian French in high school. A fat lot of good that did me when I moved to Montreal.

city dwellers... country folk know not to leave ANY foods, even/especially garbage outside in bear country...

Yes, definitely from Québec.
I second what Steeliecat (14) said.

She is clearly from Québec. This sounds a bit more eastern than the Outaouais though. I'm guessing Trois-Rivière or something like that.

I think this occurred in La tuque, QC. Seen this video a couple of days ago.

The woman first makes noise (or try to), to scare the bear. Then she says «I am not sure if it is a good idea to...», referring either to making noise or to leave the garbages on the porch. She seems relieved that the cat attacks the bear.

Still funny to see the bear backing off and going around the cat to steal the garbages.

A little bit hysterical and yes, hard to understand, even for a quebecker.

@Steeliecat

It's offensive only if you choose to be offended. What I said isn't inherently pejorative, but if you interpreted it that way, I apologize. I certainly didn't MEAN it to be. It sounds slurred compared to the French I'm used to. I honestly don't know how else to describe it. I didn't make any claims about its legitimacy/illegitimacy as a language.

Yep, bears a definitely not liking cats. I've seen this happen too.
