You may be just a few hours away from the Fourth of July holiday. Now, may we present to you a video of a bear that is truly channeling the spirit of a mellow summer BBQ.
This encounter happened on Friday afternoon, just as Mark Hough of Altadena, Calif., was settling into a relaxing margarita. Suddenly, a bear appeared in his backyard.
It could have been a terrifying event — until Hough noticed the bear had lowered itself into his hot tub and was having a « grand old time, » he told The Associated Press. He started filming.
The bear splashes around in the sunshine and appears to dunk its face in a jet, plays with the chlorinator and munches on flowers.
After that, Hough tells the AP, the ursine bather « popped out of the bushes, walked right over to the margarita, knocked it over and lapped it. »
The bear was spotted a short time later in a tree, perhaps sleeping it off. « So he had his margarita, he had his Jacuzzi, and now he’s ready for an hour nap, » Hough said.
