A young playful Alaskan brown bear tried to borrow a jet ski and take off into the waters of Naknek River, Alaska.
This amazing feat of the bear was captured by Graham Morrison, owner of Morrison Guide Service, in king Salmon, a community of around 375 residents. The photographs of the cub bear trying to get on to the boat were posted by Morrison on Facebook.
According to Morrison, the cub was apparently trying to attract the attention of his mother who was busy snacking on the fish in the waters and totally ignoring the young one. But unfortunately the little bear's trick didn't work out too well. It couldn't stay for long on the Jet Ski and eventually landed in the water.
At one point the little cute bear was seen growling back at the mother who didn't want to share the salmon with the baby. Once it lost its balance and fell into the water before hiking on to jet ski again. Morrison claimed that the bear as well as the Sea Doo craft were unharmed in all the frolicking, according to the Daily Mail.
Brown bears are found in northern Eurasia and North America. Coastal brown bears in Alaska grow up to weigh nearly 680 kg as their diet is very nutritious (mainly salmon). There are nearly 200,000 brown bears existing in the wild. These nocturnal animals are mainly solitary and are serially monogamous.
