A man and his pet bear

yeah, the bears in grizzly man are wild animals
presumably the bond through bottle feeding is strong. I would still be nervous!
Thing is that Bear's vs Cat's and Dog's being domesticated is slightly different... The typical Cat's and Dog's we have in our homes have been raised in our home's, just like the bear.
But - so have the parent's of those Cat's and Dog's, chances are that the Bear was just picked up somewhere and raised as a human. So it's less domesticated than the average cat / dog in your every day home.
I think it's a bitty cruel taking the animal out of the wild and away from its parents like that but he may have had a good reason to.
It seems like something I would do and might end up doing as next summer I'm planning on going to Asia to work rehabilitating bears used in bile farming. Might end up keeping one

Fantastic pictures.
Was a Chimp IIRC.Why am I constantly thinking of that woman in America not long ago who had a pet bear and it turned on her and her friend? And there was the police phone call recording on YouTube
Ah, for some reason I remembered it being a bear =\

From what I've read about bears on the internet they're not safe around children.
