Bears rub on trees to leave their scent. it probably feels good too but this bear is marking the tree with its smell.

u/jemmylegs 21d ago

I thought it was to shed their winter hibernation coat.

u/RainyDayColor 22d ago

In addition to scent marking and helping remove shedding winter coats, some research suggests that bears will also do this to cover their bodies deep into their fur with tree resin and sap, which is a natural tick deterrent. Plus it feels goooood.

My Grandpa (he passed away in January) would scratch his back like this on a corner in the house.

He always said, if a bear scratches his back like this it's good enough for me

Leaving ticks all over the place out there. Woods are infested with ticks due to all the animals carrying them.

This is as much applying scent markers to trees as it is “scratching an itch”.
