This is just too cute for words! Turns out, bear cubs play just the same as human kids! They'll climb, rolls around, jump, explore their surroundings, and just enjoy each other's company!
The video itself is 8 years old, and the camera work is definitely shaky, but the content is simply too good and too cute to forget about. A mean... a playground full of adorable bear cubs? Sign us up!
Yesterday, Matthew Bete was taking a nap by his pool when, out of nowhere, a black bear walked onto his property through a gate. The bear immediately heads for Matthew's pool, taking a long, long drink from it. He then turns around, spots Matthew, and quietly walks over to him, sniffing his foot and gently reaching out to touch it. Matthew, stirred by the touch, wakes up startled and scares the bear off. And what else does he do immediately after? Take his phone out to film it of course. Check out photos of the incident bellow!
Bears. Beets. Battle Star Galactica.
Okay, maybe just bears. However, bears might be the most interesting subject out of all three things listed above. Sorry to offend, beet lovers of the world.
Bears are dangerous animals, but they're also one of the cutest animals around. Yes, if you encounter one out in the wild it would be downright terrifying but what is about these animals that make us drawn to them? It could be that they're obviously fluffy, or how funny they look when they're standing. Or, maybe it's just instilled into our minds at a young age when you get your first stuffed teddy bear.
Also, there's the obvious fact that they hibernate for about 7 months, which just sounds like a dream for anyone of us. Ah, sleep, we love it so much.
Bear with us here while we dive into the wildest bear memes we found scattered across the web.
National Park Service has been killing it on social media lately! And with a recent post on what to do and what NOT do in case of a bear encounter, people are taking notice just how comedic their social media really is.

Keep us the amazing work, Matthew Turner! And if you're not doing so already, check out National Park Service on Facebook and Instagram!
And learn what to do when coming across a bear!
Another older gem of a video. When this giant bear walks up to where a man is sitting, the last thing you would think it would do is sit peacefully beside the man, and enjoy the view.
That's exactly what happened. Really makes you wonder if sometimes, bears don't want to deal with you just as much as we don't want to accidentally stumble upon them. Maybe, they just want to take in the view, too.
We will say, however, we are slightly disappointed the bear didn't sit in the empty chair beside him. Oh well! Can't win them all!
Nothing like the bond between a mother and her babies.
Moms are always there to teach us everything we need to know about life and stand like a wall for us our entire life.
And as you can see from these adorable pictures, bears are absolutely no different.
We have compiled this un-bear-ably cute list featuring momma bears showing their cubs all about the bear necessities of life.
Meet the adorable rescued baby black bear -- Casper! Casper was abandoned as a very young cub, thankfully the wonderful team at Black Bear Rescue Manitoba, Canada, rescued him and nourished him before his release back into the wild.
When Casper was 1 month old, he was introduced to another rescued cub named Dudley. At first, Casper didn't want anything to do with Dudley but we're happy that didn't last too long because Caper and Dudley playing together is just the sweetest thing!
It wasn't long before the pair became inseparable. Watch their story below!

Awweeee! Just when you think you've seen the cute of the cute, you stumble upon this wholesome comic series and it just punches you in the gut with mega-ultra-cuteness that you're left stunned for a minute.
That's 'Milk and Mocha Bear'! The wholesome bear duo, Milk, what appears to be a polar bear and Mocha, a brown bear, are the best of friends and compliment each others personalities. When users asked the artist "why is milk so cute?" The artist responded, "I was born that way." And another user continued to ask, "why is the brown bear always sad or confused?" The artist wrote, "...I can get angry too."
The talented Indonesian artist obviously uses both Milk and Mocha to express themselves in a delightful form that charms thousands!
Get ready for some mega cuteness!
If it looks like a bear, walks like a bear, and talks like a bear then it's....a human?
Based on the following collection of photos, you'd never know these bears weren't humans in disguise.
Take a look and see if you agree.
Meet Brandy! The most beautiful moon bear in the world!
Brandy was rescued in 1999, by Free the Bears, when she was found clinging to a tree in Southern California, once a forested area that was converted to a palm oil plantation. Now Brandy currently resides at the Cambodia Bear Sanctuary, which is the world's largest sun bear sanctuary. And according to Free the Bears, Brandy is a gentle bear.
Brandy is a Golden moon bear, which is an extremely rare genetic color phase of moon bear. Whenever she emerges from the trees, you see a burst of golden yellow and because of her beautiful coloring, she is often mistaken for a lion!
Sun bears and moon bears are both vulnerable species listed on the IUCN Red List. You can help by sponsoring Brandy or even become a Bear Carer, all for less than the usual cup of coffee per week!

It's Wild Out There!
As humans continue to take up more and more space, bears encounters are becoming more common, with the animals venturing out of the woods into more civilized areas, often in search of an easy food source — like a dumpster or snacks left behind by campers. But the summer of 2019 was extraordinary as the big, furry creatures have spent it crashing weddings, making pit stops at hotel bathrooms and other shenanigans, all over the US, as mapped in the map below.
If you can't beat 'em -- join 'em! Or something along those lines...
