Patrick Parker often took Ian’s little son to the Nashville Zoo. Moreover, the animals were not always the same there. Sometimes guests from other zoos in the country came to visit the city. This time they brought the Andean bears – there are only 38 of them in America. Rarity! Of course, Patrick and his five-year-old baby could not miss such an event.
And here he is, an enclosure with bears. True, the bears were in no hurry to come close. It was much more interesting for them to sit on the rocks by the pool than to swim at the very fence. Iyen was not satisfied with this state of affairs. He decided to attract the attention of the clubfoot and began to jump right at the barrier.
Ian’s efforts were not in vain. One of the bears became interested in what kind of somersaults this kid was doing there, jumped into the water and swam to the boy. Here we will make a reservation: the barrier was made of durable glass and reliably separated the aviary from the corridors where visitors wandered. Thanks to him, the show made by this couple – a bear and a boy – became possible.
Ian was so glad that the bear paid attention to him that he continued to jump. And the clubfoot, standing waist-deep in water … began to copy it! I jumped up once, twice. And then they began to jump synchronously – to the delight of the boy’s father and everyone else.
Patrick posted the video on his Facebook. Almost 3 million people watched the video on his page alone – this is a week! Dozens of comments, almost 50 thousand reposts. Probably, somehow glory looks like this.
