I was at the zoo a few weeks ago and managed to catch this Grizzly bouncing a ball around like a child would. It seemed pretty bizarre so I uploaded it to youtube. Check it out.

After some searching it appears this guy is all over youtube from other people's recordings as well. It makes you wonder if he's having fun or if he's just so completely bored that he bounces a ball nonstop all day.

I'd imagine it's one of the few things that is keeping him from going completely insane in his zoo prison.

Eh, it's basically how I live my life right now.

Bouncing stuff is fun!

I believe it is Canada's national anthem. Pay some respect!
