It’s no secret that people love bears. We watch bears compete in Fat Bear Week, kids cling to teddy bears, and there are sports teams named after this awesome animal. This Halloween, there are even more reasons to celebrate cute bears. Two recent videos from North Carolina and New York are showing the world how these critters are getting into the holiday spirit.
The first delightful video comes from the Orphaned Wildlife Center in Otisville, New York. A recent clip shows three of the center’s orphaned bears celebrating pumpkin season by tearing into some plump orange gourds. The bears, named Amy, Jenny, and Sonya, can be seen putting their powerful claws and teeth to use to shred the pumpkins. See it for yourself here.
On the other end of the East Coast, a set of curious and adorable bears in Asheville, North Carolina, were spotted investigating a resident’s Halloween decorations. This trio seemed most interested in the nearby water dish, though. After poking around at the spooky decorations and lapping up some water, the three cubs wandered back into the woods. So long, cute bears! Let’s hope you join us again next year for more Halloween fun.
