Apparently, Bears Have No Chill



At this point, I’m beginning to think bears are just living their best lives while the rest of us are unnecessarily following rules.

First, we had bears breaking into houses, hot tubs, cars, and bakeries. Now we have a bear breaking into a snack factory, accidentally turning on a conveyor belt, and apparently discovering an all-you-can-eat cereal buffet. Hours later, he was found passed out on the factory floor, surrounded by crumbs.

Honestly? Relatable.

The alarm is screaming. The humans are panicking. The bear is like, “I have made some choices. I regret none of them.”

Perhaps the real lesson here is that sometimes life gives you a conveyor belt full of cereal. You eat the cereal. You take the nap. You deal with the consequences when you wake up.

Psychologistmimi’s unofficial clinical assessment. Bear is experiencing acute snack-related euphoria with absolutely no interest in developing better coping skills.

And frankly, I’m not sure we should judge.

  1. Call it a ‘bear vacation’ with an all-you-can-eat buffet.

    Not a good way to get your daily nutrition, and someone else has to do the cleanup, but fun for the bear every once in a while.

    I think bears are designed to eat themselves into a stupor when they can: hard to get enough calories at that size. The opportunities are not frequent.

  3. This is hilarious! Humans panic at everything. I mean, we are stealing the animals’ biotopes and then we are surprised when they pop up in ours. This story has just lightened my mood immensely, go bear!
