Real Bears…Or Humans In Bear Suits?!

This is a question I don't think many of us thought we'd ever have to consider. But could this zoo be using humans in bear costumes?

After some video and photos showed up online, people have begun to wonder if a zoo in eastern China is using humans in bear suits as an attraction. The bear in question is called a sun bear and it considered to be the smallest bears on the planet. But, after a photo and video surfaced, people are not convinced they are real.

The video shows a bear standing on it's hind legs and looking at people, what is weird is the shape and skin of the bear. To me it looks like a suit that is a little too baggy for the person wearing it.

Here is the video:

The internet cracks me up, but come on man, these do not look like the bears we know so well here in the states. Like the report above shares, China has faked animals before. I do love the thought of this being someone's job. Get up every morning, say goodbye to the wife and kids and head on out to the zoo for a long and hot work day.

Anyway, we did look these bears up and they do exist, it is just more fun to think of them as a human in a suit.

When it comes down to it, no matter if it's a human in a suit or an actually bear. We need to get some of these in Detroit! They are very cool and different looking from the bears we see when we head on over to the Detroit zoo.

Hey It’s Ryan, let me start off by saying…YES, I was born and raised in Wixom, Michigan although a lot of listeners like to joke that I am from Arizona. WCSX has always been my radio home, I have been at the station since I was a 23-year-old intern, co-host of Big Jim’s House, married with kids. Family and radio are what I love, but don’t get me started on golf! Like some, I have become obsessed with golf and you can hear all about that on “The Ball Washer Pod” right here on WCSX. One of my other passions is helping out the Vets. Since coming to WCSX I have been apart of raising hundreds of thousands for local vet groups. Other than that, I am a goofy guy, loving life, my family and talking to you on the radio. Ryan writes about golf, family and what happens on “Big Jim’s House.”
