PEPPERELL, Mass. — A black bear wanted to cool off in a backyard pond in Pepperell – but the homeowner’s koi fish had other ideas.
The bear was caught on camera taking a dip in the pond. The video shows the animal panting and soaking for about a minute before wandering back into the woods.
The owner says her backyard has become a popular hangout spot for wildlife, so she added a security camera to catch the action.
