Two students were visiting a wildlife refuge in North Carolina (USA) last Sunday, when they came across a black bear standing on its hind legs that was maintaining a pose strangely similar to that of a human.
Erin McAllister and her boyfriend Zachary Allen were driving down a road at the shelter when they spotted the animal, whose photos Allen later posted on Facebook. “To be honest, when we both saw it for the first time, we weren’t even sure it was real! It was standing so still and stoically,” McAllister relates to Newsweek.
As the pair slowly approached in their car, the bear, who was relatively young, stood “very still” and seemed “totally indifferent”Well, apart from the “slight look” she cast in her direction, she continued to look into the forest across the road, the student recalls.
After holding the pose for about ten minutes, the animal spotted a group of three similarly sized black bears nearby and ran into the forest to meet them. “We like to interpret this whole experience as a standing bear looking for its friends,” says McAllister.
