I think keeping a bear, even a very well trained and "domesticated" one is cruel and horrible. I also think that Russians make it look super fun and awesome on youtube.
But eventually the bear is probably going to maul me and my last thought will be the Chris Rock quote on Siegfried and Roy... "That tiger didnt go crazy, THAT TIGER WENT TIGER!"
There is a guy in my area that runs a wolf refuge and therefore has a zoo license. Local police took possession of an illegally owned black bear cub and came to him because it was too domesticated to release and they couldn't find a zoo that would take it. He refused but then relented because the next option was euthanasia. Now his wolf sanctuary has a black bear that he raised by hand and does "wrestling" shows with. He and the bear pretend to wrestle in a bunch of different poses. The bear could snap him like a twig, but is clearly very affectionate towards him.

Oh nnnnooo it's like Bart, the bear who played every bear in a movie or TV show when I was a kid.
Lol my wife and I use this quote all the time, but it's so old that I don't think anyone ever understands it.
You know when that tiger was crazy? When it was riding around on the little bicycle "Ohhh Im a crazy tiger!"
