Barking mad: Adventure-seeking canine befriends family of bears (VIDEO)
When voyaging through Russias wild frontier, one might do well to avoid getting too close to huge bears – that is unless youre a mischievous pup with the ability to charm your way into their trust.
The bizarre moment when a dog was able to frolic around safely with a group of bears has been captured by a drone operator near the village of Ust-Kamchatsk in Kamchatka.
The Russian Far East peninsula is teeming with wildlife, with the protected area said to be populated by between 10,000-14,000 brown bears.
Amazingly, the plucky canine appears to have avoided being torn to pieces by the forest-dwellers. Instead, the cheeky dog was filmed sizing up his massive companions before going on a ramble through the woods.

At one stage, a bear stands ominously on its back legs and appears to stare at the dog as though it could be a delicious meal. However, the bears and the pup are later seen wandering through the sparse landscape together and play-wrestling on the grass. All together now: Ahhhh cute.
