When I was in Manitoba to photograph the polar bears there was a small film crew there working on a 3D movie of the bears. This camera was set up to record time lapse panoramas of the tide rising and falling on the Hudson Bay. The camera guys were getting a little nervous that the bear might make lunch out of their expensive gear. In this instance, the bear just examined the camera for a few seconds before moving on. A few days earlier, however, a healthy chunk was taken out of one of their tripods.
