While we pretend bears are jennifer garner nude sex videoscute and cuddly creatures, they're actually dangerous animals perfectly capable of causing some serious damage. That doesn't scare George Hachey, though.
In a recent clip posted to Facebook, Hachey demonstrates his lack of fear for bears while promoting a safari park called Little Big Bear Safari in New Brunswick, Canada. In the clip, Hachey can be seen walking amongst the bears, and even feeding them. Hachey points out that he is surrounded by nine bears, which are completely ignoring him in favor of the food which he spread across the ground.
In an interview with Mashable, Hachey explains that the bears in the clip are all wild, and come and go from the park as they please.

While it may seem that Hachey is doing something good, some wildlife experts would criticize the park's practice of feeding the bears.

(Not to mention interacting with wild bears could be dangerous to Hachey, even if they seem friendly, as anyone who has seen the heartbreaking Grizzly Manknows.)
But Hachey insists that the bears at his park aren't dependent on the food they feed them.
Regardless of the ethical dilemma, Hachey says the park attracts guests from around the world, and reviews on Trip Advisor back up his claims.
"The entire experience was fantastic," one reviewer wrote. "We saw 13 bears and cubs. The owners are wonderful and add to the amazing experience. Even the 'tree house' was great. I highly recommend this for adults and children alike. You won't be disappointed."
Unless you're Hachey, don't feed the bears, OK?
