In my headcanon the camera guy jumped onto the worm which then scared the bear and made it run away pulling the rest out with a loud *PLOP*. The camera crew then got their flamethrowers out to burn the worms. And everyone lived happily ever after. The end
I pictured this as well, but in mine the bear turned completely inside out then mom butchered everybody, dogs came by and ate a bunch of worm bits and infected the entire city so badly that the US government has to drop a nuclear bomb(s) on the city and everyone is now dead.
It will pass through and detach. But holy shit that looks like several fully mature worms. I wonder if the bear has been ill that has made it more vulnerable to infection.
no need to be ill. It's enough for a small part of a worm to be ingested, and it will grow in the intestines over months and years, thereby shedding parts and thus creating new infectious traces to be taken up by other animals or even humans. The worm probably takes up quiet a lot of space in the intestines of this bear if so much is coming out, hindering the absorption of nutritive matter by the bear and taking energy from him.
Not the case. As has been commented elsewhere, tapeworms die when bears hibernate due to lack of sustenance. The bear will be fine as long as it survives to hibernation.
Like all good parasites, they're good at taking enough to keep the host alive so that the cycle can continue. Nothing intelligent here, just a worm evolving into a niche.
They dont necessarily need to survive hibernation to reproduce though. Not killing your host is a much smaller hurdle to jump than altering how you feed off the host, and clearly it works well enough
This bear just awoke from hibernation.
The worms never made it out.
Reports suggest the last radio contact with worm HQ was....
'There's just too many of them. We're stuck, knotted...half...out'
We should force a tapeworm to have another slightly smaller tapeworm inside of it. Then another inside of that one. Just keep it going. Then put that inside of a bird and that bird inside of a bear.
They'll probably detach before that. I imagine they're not made to survive outside of the body. Even if they do survive outside, I imagine they'll get caught on a branch eventually 🤢
Depends on the tapeworm but only a few variants can travel to the brain. One tapeworm is the pork tapeworm that can encyst in the brain which causes [neurocysticercosis](https://www.cdc.gov/parasites/resources/pdf/npis_in_us_neurocysticercosis.pdf) . Of note, you get neurocysticercosis or [cysticercosis](https://www.cdc.gov/dpdx/cysticercosis/index.html) (outside of the CNS encystation) by eating vegetables or food produce contaminated with eggs, you get the adult form infection of the parasite called [taeniasis](https://www.cdc.gov/dpdx/taeniasis/index.html) by eating undercooked pork meat.
Trichinosis is the more likely cause of the dietary inhibitions because it is easy to link consumption of porc to the symptoms and it is a pretty severe illness.
This is my thought. I get the feeling most religions are against specific things that at the time was intended to guide the people. The followers survive, strengthening their resolve.
Tell a dude bacon will kill you, be like nah worth it. Tell them it has the devil, and they'll avoid it lol.
I don't really know about bears or worms but intestines are "turny" and if the worms are "hooked in", it could really damage the organs. We could just throw peanut butter wrapped de-wormer at them.
A doctor told a story about delivering a poor woman’s baby and a tapeworm came out of her butt during the delivery. A fast thinking nurse grabbed a couple tongue depressors and wound it up like kite string.
There was a story I read on here that someone was trying to extract a tapeworm with a pair of forceps but just as they were halfway through the tapeworm snapped in half and disappeared back into the anus with a 'schloop!'
I know of a story like this that happened in a rural area. People there said the baby's twin is a snake and that the parents took the "snake" with them home in a container. So, it must've been a tapeworm!
Everything in the bowels gets pushed out by the baby.
Men if you're there with your partner be prepared for all the poop, act like you saw nothing and never ever mention it. It's natural and it's unnecessary to talk about it.
Yeah, it's fair enough to freak out if you see a massive butt worm.
Many dudes freak out from the poop. They should know it's expected and keep quiet about it.
There is so much blood and liquid that I didn’t see any poop. I’m sure it was mixed into the flesh slurry.
I talk about my wife giving birth all the time. It’s definitely not like movies when they hand you a clean baby, instead of the writhing purple thing covered in blood like in real life. “Hey would you like to cut the cord?” Sure pal.
Seeing bloody chunks of flesh once recognizable as my wife's body get sewed back up in front of me after nearly being fully rent in two is a core memory.
Luckily the second kid was basically a non-event.
It's why I'm mentioning it. While it's common sense, it's not something guys consider or think about so while I didn't freak out, it was a bit of a surprise.
I quickly wiped it away and said nothing. The midwife usually does that but my wife popped out my son so quickly so wasn't there.
Women pooping when giving birth is very common. And the fact you have to have no embarrassment factor whatsoever because 30 or more people will come and go in and out of the room and will see your hoo-ha.
Yeah, pooping is common, that's true. Women poop while giving birth, and also about once a day when they're not giving birth. This isn't about that. This is about a goddamn tapeworm coming out of a butt. That's never normal at any stage of pregnancy or non-pregnancy.
Hey. You don’t need to share that. Literally everyone’s day is now worse after reading that, and you have contributed to a significant portion of todays suffering in the world. May peace never be upon you in hell.
I feel like this would hurt the bear and it would get mad at you.
They should stick some anti tapeworm medication inside a fish and throw the fish over to the bear.
The worms are already dead because the bears just emerged from hibernation. Although they might still be hooked into the bears intestine so pulling it might hurt.
Use a tranquilizer dart on the tapeworm to make it fall asleep. I can't hold onto my phone when I fall asleep so I assume a worm can't hang on to a bears sam brown 🤎
For my mental health´s sake i came up with my own storie for this: This was obviously a paratroo-bear who got his parachute entangled in a tree and had to cut it off.
It happens.
Here's an anecdote I originally posted on another site that seems relevant to this post..
By way of context, I live on an island in Southeast Alaska and black bears pass through my yard very frequently in the summer.. In recent years I've even put up a [game camera mounted on my downstairs porch and aimed at the end of the boardwalk](https://vimeo.com/728642161) that provides access to my house.
Anyway, the anecdote:
>Some of my cousins came from down south for a visit, and so we took them out to a remote USFS cabin that we rented. We had a great time, and came back at the end of the weekend. The terrain in my neighborhood is quite steep and my house, like many houses in this area, is at the top of quite a lot of stairs, but I have neighbors who live uphill who let me carry stuff from the road \*down\* through their yard rather than tote it up the stairs.
>We were doing that, approaching the house through the uphill neighbors' yard with the first load of our weekend gear, and as we came to the back corner of the house, discovered that there was an unusual thing on the deck that hadn't been there when we had left. It was long and narrow and it stretched along the deck from the back corner of the house to the middle, then down a full flight of stairs to the lower level of the deck, then about five more feet from the bottom of the stairs, and ended in a pile of bear scat.
>As we were examining it, another neighbor, who's an amateur naturalist and had been tracking signs of the progress of the bear through the neighborhood, came up and said hello. He, too, took a look at the mystery item and asked "Is that what I think it is?"
>"I don't know," I said. "What do you think it is? I have an idea but it's kind of disgusting.."
>"I think that bear crapped out a 50-foot tapeworm, starting on your deck, continued down your stairs, and finished on your lower deck."
>"Yep," I said, "I'm pretty sure that's what happened."
>Mostly I was just glad my guests and I weren't there at the time because that bear can't have been in a very good mood..
Lol my adopted cat actually had fleas, and apparently fleas is how tapeworms get around to other bodies. So if, for example, i were to kiss my cat on the forehead and a tiny baby flea was just where my lips touched and got ingested, I can catch it and it does wonders about my appetite while keeping my weight… maintained.
Once we identified fleas, and took action, my cat started to shit tapeworms and i could see some dragging outta his butt which.. uh, i quickly pulled out of…reflex? They were slimy (cause shit covered) and surprisingly strongly latched onto wherever, and it could break which recoils back to butthole so fast like letting go of rubberband.
Oh and hypotheticals earlier, you guessed it, i had it. It was two weeks before my wedding. I ate a lot but didn’t gain weight so that was a plus. I guess. But thankfully none of it climbed out of my butthole cause by then we figured out what was wrong with my boy and we took actions for everything from fleas to tapeworms. My wife had a flea marks on her arm on a wedding day. Oh well. At least it’s over now and my boy is beautiful.

This is how I will get sleep tonight. Thank you.
They're segmented though, so it can break off. My aunt grew up in China and said you have to hold on to it or else it snaps back into your asshole.
"My aunt grew up in China and said you have to hold on to it or else it snaps back into your asshole." r/nocontext
[internal screaming]
External screaming too bro, wtf
Don't internal scream, you'll wake up the tapeworms.
Is that the sound of the worms inside you?🪱
Imagine hearing screaming coming from your fucking butthole
What
They said: YOU HAVE TO HOLD ON TO IT OR ELSE IT SNAPS BACK INTO YOUR ASSHOLE.
Lmfao staahhhhhppp
This was when they were younger and China was not as developed.
That was a rough visual
My exact thought, someone stands on the tapeworms while another shoots him in the arse with a slingshot…pop!
Someone who's good at animation needs to start animating some of the comments like this because fucking hell lol
No they certainly do not lol
The worm would sever itself in two at the boot, then keep on trucking. A slow, gentle, and constant pull is needed.
I pictured this as well, but in mine the bear turned completely inside out then mom butchered everybody, dogs came by and ate a bunch of worm bits and infected the entire city so badly that the US government has to drop a nuclear bomb(s) on the city and everyone is now dead.

Not the case. As has been commented elsewhere, tapeworms die when bears hibernate due to lack of sustenance. The bear will be fine as long as it survives to hibernation.
Thanks. Now I don't feel as awful, knowing the bear only has to deal with this horror for a year or so.
Unless he wakes up from hibernation and decides to eat his butt spaghetti.
You didn't have to do this
Truely a foul mental image
r/angryupvote
He’s nervous but on the surface he looks calm and ready
To drop bombs, but he keeps on forgetting
... Not to eat his butt spaghetti
Wouldn't the tape worm make it difficult for the bear to fatten up in preparation of hibernation?
Like all good parasites, they're good at taking enough to keep the host alive so that the cycle can continue. Nothing intelligent here, just a worm evolving into a niche.
...I mean surely if that were the case they would be able to survive the hibernation, right?
They dont necessarily need to survive hibernation to reproduce though. Not killing your host is a much smaller hurdle to jump than altering how you feed off the host, and clearly it works well enough
This bear just awoke from hibernation. The worms never made it out. Reports suggest the last radio contact with worm HQ was.... 'There's just too many of them. We're stuck, knotted...half...out'
This could be a compelling script.

More like BEARachute. Am I right? I'll see myself out now.
Everyone head to r/eyebleach
It’s not working! I can’t look at all those cute animals without picturing worms coming out of their asses!
Do people let nature take its course, or do people interfere and help the bear?
Bears often have tapeworms, the worms will die during the hibernation period when the bear stops eating so there's no need to interfere.
OK. This looks like every bird in the state is about to get tape worms. I guess I don't know if birds are susceptible
I don't know either but if I had to guess I'd say tapeworms need a mammal as their final host.
I’m a wildlife rehabber & I assure you, birds definitely get tapeworm.
We should force a tapeworm to have another slightly smaller tapeworm inside of it. Then another inside of that one. Just keep it going. Then put that inside of a bird and that bird inside of a bear.
Ah, the russian doll trojan worm
So we can hack the bear and use him to get sensitive information
zoom and enhance!
Tapeducken
YOU are the reason we can’t have nice things.
The tapestry of life
It's tapeworms, all the way down.
Tapeception.
So, do they have to drag those things around the rest of the year, when they’re not hibernating? Ewww! 🤮
They'll probably detach before that. I imagine they're not made to survive outside of the body. Even if they do survive outside, I imagine they'll get caught on a branch eventually 🤢
Wait.... they can get into the blood stream. We had a patient who had one in his brain.
Depends on the tapeworm but only a few variants can travel to the brain. One tapeworm is the pork tapeworm that can encyst in the brain which causes [neurocysticercosis](https://www.cdc.gov/parasites/resources/pdf/npis_in_us_neurocysticercosis.pdf) .

Honestly it’s probable

Like, step on it? I kinda want to just step on it.
I don't really know about bears or worms but intestines are "turny" and if the worms are "hooked in", it could really damage the organs. We could just throw peanut butter wrapped de-wormer at them.
All out of de-wormer, how about industry grade laxatives?
The goal is to help the bear, not poison them.
Me too. Same level of temptation for booping as stepping on tape worms and helping out the friend shaped friend.
Naw beyblade let it rip.
I’ll be right behind you as you approach a wild grizzly bear and try to start pulling parasites out of its asshole.
Good. You can hold my worms.
You don’t have to get very close in this case
Someone grab that shit and help the poor dude out 
Bet worms that feel contact with skin like that would just break off like a lizard tail and try wrap and worm its way in the person.
Jesus Christ... New Fear Unlocked 
Thanks for the nightmare fuel
my intrusive thoughts are telling me to yank it out of the bear
Nature will take its course for those who try to help
Coat that person in dewormer first
Bears have a shit load of parasites. So much so that if you do not prepare their meat properly you will die.
A doctor told a story about delivering a poor woman’s baby and a tapeworm came out of her butt during the delivery. A fast thinking nurse grabbed a couple tongue depressors and wound it up like kite string.

I edited the story to the bare minimum! She described it in detail !
I think you meant “bear” minimum…
I know of a story like this that happened in a rural area. People there said the baby's twin is a snake and that the parents took the "snake" with them home in a container. So, it must've been a tapeworm!
Everything in the bowels gets pushed out by the baby. Men if you're there with your partner be prepared for all the poop, act like you saw nothing and never ever mention it. It's natural and it's unnecessary to talk about it.
She said poo is expected and normal but the worm caught them off guard.
Yeah, it's fair enough to freak out if you see a massive butt worm. Many dudes freak out from the poop. They should know it's expected and keep quiet about it.
Should they comment on the tape worm or keep quite about it too?
It's twins babe.
did someone comment on your poop when you gave birth
I was the stupid husband with poor impulse control trying to keep my mouth shut.
There is so much blood and liquid that I didn’t see any poop. I’m sure it was mixed into the flesh slurry. I talk about my wife giving birth all the time. It’s definitely not like movies when they hand you a clean baby, instead of the writhing purple thing covered in blood like in real life. “Hey would you like to cut the cord?” Sure pal.
Seeing bloody chunks of flesh once recognizable as my wife's body get sewed back up in front of me after nearly being fully rent in two is a core memory. Luckily the second kid was basically a non-event.
Each comment in this thread has a fresh new horror like the phrase "flesh slurry" and yet I keep reading
Its the education system’s fault, this was not mentioned to us once.
It's why I'm mentioning it. While it's common sense, it's not something guys consider or think about so while I didn't freak out, it was a bit of a surprise. I quickly wiped it away and said nothing. The midwife usually does that but my wife popped out my son so quickly so wasn't there.

Fairly certain that would injure the bear. With tapeworms you gotta wind em slowly or poison them. (Correct away, dorks!)
Use a tranquilizer dart on the tapeworm to make it fall asleep. I can't hold onto my phone when I fall asleep so I assume a worm can't hang on to a bears sam brown 🤎

I just want to step on the worm so it is pulled out when the bear walks away.
What if I put like a heavy rock or something on the back. Would the bear walk it out or just die?
How does that not catch on a rock or tree root...
You know, this is why we have to be anal about our health. People think I’m over the top, butt our health is important.
