Massive Brown Bear's Nighttime Swim Session Is the Ultimate Relaxation
Massive Brown Bear's Nighttime Swim Session Is the Ultimate Relaxation originally appeared on PetHelpful.
Summer is here, and that means that everyone, our animal counterparts included, is looking to relax with a nice dip in the pool.
And as this incredible devoted shows, that was exactly what was on this massive bear's mind when they stopped over in someone's backyard to enjoy their pool.
And hey, we can't blame this guy for wanting to take a dip in summonses like this, it can still be pretty hot at night, and who doesn't enjoy a nice relaxing swim after dark?
Well, doesn't that just look like a splashing good time? At first, this bear is just so happy to be in the water, splashing around like a happy human who is all too overjoyed to finally be cooling off.
And after a few moments of some good old-fashioned splashing around, this massive bear calms down a little bit, as he just wins along, nice and easy around the pool, just enjoying the feeling of it all.And as soon as his nighttime soak is done, this guy is off into the night. He took his refreshing dip, and now he is fully recharged and ready to resume his nocturnal animal adventures.
While it is true that this bear was very dirty, you can really see all the dirt in the water when he first gets in the pool, Instagram user poolbearlife, who posted this video and whose pool this is, is not concerned about their pool getting dirty.
They wrote, 'Yes, he's dirty. No, we don't drain the pool. The filter system and weekly maintenance handle it like a champ. He splashes, he chills, and then he's off. Just another wild night in the life here in the foothills.'
Summertime backyard fun is just for us humans, clearly, bears enjoy hanging out in the backyard pool to cool off just as much as we do. This can result in frequent bear sightings in people's backyards during this time of year.
And while that might sound scary, the good news is that most encounters between bears and humans are actually very peaceful.
If someone does see a bear in their backyard or hanging out in their pool, the best course of action is to stay inside the house and avoid interacting with them altogether.
It is highly likely that someone's backyard is actually sort of a bear's natural habitat, and all they are looking to do is escape the summertime heat for a little bit.
But once they have cooled off, after a nice, relaxing swim, they will most likely move on, just like the big, adorable bear in this video.

Dad Praised for Eye-Opening Message About Supporting Kids Like Your Partner
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A New York dad has been praised online for his case that parents should support their kids in the same way you would a partner. Rory Tobias (@adadnamedrory) posted a reel on Instagram and recounted a moment many adults can relate to: arriving home after a long day of work, emotionally tapped out and needing space. His wife, eager for connection after a tough day herself, was met not with comfort but with a closed emotional door. From left: Rory Tobias, 33, speaks into the camera in Brooklyn, New York, filming an Instagram reel. From left: Rory Tobias, 33, speaks into the camera in Brooklyn, New York, filming an Instagram reel. @adadnamedrory "I just said, 'Go lay down, go do your thing, you'll be OK,'" he said in his clip. Later that night, he told her to sleep in another room. "If anybody is not enraged by that, if you think that's not OK—why are we doing it to our kids?" Tobias told Newsweek that his revelation didn't start when he became a parent, but much earlier in childhood. "We all felt it, that something was off," the 33-year-old said. "As kids, we just didn't have the words to name it." Tobias said how adults were allowed to have strong emotions, to speak their minds—while children were often silenced or shamed for doing the same. Now, as a father himself, Tobias realized that children deserve a voice. "Nearly every day, we ask ourselves: Would that be OK if you said it to your wife? Would what you're doing or saying still feel right if it were your wife instead of your child? Most of the time, the answer is no," Tobias said. "And I think that's something we really need to sit with and examine." Noticing these so-called "infinite double standards" has made Tobias more intentional—but also more vulnerable. He has had to unlearn old parenting styles that he, too, unconsciously mimicked the parenting patterns of the past. "The real work? It's messy. It's humbling. And it's not always pretty," Tobias told Newsweek. "For me, recognizing the double standards has made parenting more demanding—but also more honest. It reveals my flaws daily. And maybe that's the point." Tobias' reel has gone viral on the platform, amassing over 364,000 views. Hundreds of parents commented, praising Tobias for his message. "Didn't expect that turn, today was particularly hard for me and my little guy. Much respect for this video brother," one user wrote. "This is literally the point I'm always trying to make. Adults don't like to sleep alone or be brushed off, why do we think it's normal to do it to our kids?" another commented. A third commenter wrote: "This was so good, my kids sleep with me and probably will for the next few years but I'm going to remember this, they need me more than I need to do anything else." Tobias said he is "truly humbled" by the response online. "Every loving message means the world to me," he added. "I just wish I could sit down with each person and remind them they're not alone—that real parenting, the deep, messy, healing kind, is hard. And it's rarely Instagram-pretty."
