'Bear spa day': Wild bears who like to visit a Californian family's backyard now enjoy a dip in their new pond, cuteness overload

It's not all 70 degree days and palm tress when living in California. Their summers can be brutal, with wildfires and smog, and respecting the laws of the wildlife are a hard must. There is a reason there is a bear on their state flag. Though many Californians agree it's a small price to pay to be able to live in the beautiful state that California is. The nature there is simply breathtaking. 

A California family gets many critters visiting their backyard. Located in the foothills of CA, they love their coexistence with nature there. They love it so much they decided to turn to TikTok to share a little slice of it with others. They set up cameras in their backyard and started documenting the wildlife that constantly came to have a fun time in their backyard. Cute foxes come to take a drink from their ponds, even bobcats strut in to check out the place. But their most frequent visitors are bears. Luckily, they're black bears, so they are inherently aggressive—so when she sees them sauntering over, she simply just goes inside the house and gives them the yard. 

The bears enjoy their yard so much that most of their content is of the bears and their cubs have a grand ‘ole time in their backyard as if they’re at an amusement park. The videos go so viral, that now viewers are even suggesting things to make it more fun for the bears. Their most recent request? A bigger pond for the bears! 

Well, the family listened and installed a bigger pond and immediately the bears started coming. Now it's become the bear spa and viewers are absolutely overloaded with bear cuteness! See for yourself below!
