A Minnesota group that studies wolves on Saturday shared trail-cam footage of an incredibly fat black bear that looked beyond ready for hibernaiton.
“Talk about a unit! This bear is clearly ready for the long nap,” the Voyageurs Wolf Project proclaimed via Instagram.
The footage was captured a month ago but only recently discovered as Voyageurs Wolf Project staff inspected footage. The bear has almost undoubtedly denned up by now.

“That is a massive black bear, one follower observed.
Another follower jokingly captioned the footage: “The rare North American hippo.”
