THE BACKYARD — Have you ever seen a bear so excited for anything as this bear is for a swing set?

I can see some human-like emotions in the bear in this video as it bounds down the hill into the backyard, frantically tries to get onto the swing and then finds a spot where it is entirely comfortable.

This bear is so comfortable, I can see why bears were chosen — despite how dangerous they are — to be the stuffed animal that many humans cuddle up with at night.

This bear makes use of multiple swings at once, putting most of his body onto one circular swing, and then resting its arm on a neighboring swing.

How excited this bear is for the swing shows me it may be a regular in this backyard and likely takes advantage of this swing on a regular basis.

I wonder if the swing set has now been taken over by this animal. No matter how cute the bear is, I hope any children are still keeping their distance.
