Zoo In China Claims That Its Bears Are Not Actually Humans In Costumes After Eery Video Goes Viral Of Them Standing And Waving

Usually, we would throw this kind of animal news in the trash, but the more you watch the video, the more you doubt if what you're seeing is real or not. The eerie video in question shows a video of a sun bear in a Chinese zoo standing up on its hind legs and waving at zoo members. The bear looks weirdly saggy and strangely comfortable on its two hind legs. So comfortable, it almost looks human.

Bears are silly by nature, and them standing up or waving is nothing totally out of the ordinary, but we can't shake the feeling that something is weird about this video. The zoo even took to Twitter and publicly denied the allegations brought against the zoo and the bear. We're not sure what to think, but what about you? Is it a real bear? Or a human in a bear costume?

Look at that! It's so strange. It looks so comfortable on two legs, waving like everyone else. We can't shake the feeling that something is up here, although bears do love to wave for food.

Think about the people in costumes at Disney Land or something, though. They regularly go out in the park in 100+ degrees and they're okay. It's not so farfetched. We think it's a human in a costume!
