Polar Bear afraid of water, backing away repeatedly, then jumps right to it in the zoo with people watching. Joanna Gladh, a 29-year-old technology advocate from Helsingborg, Sweden, captures a humorous moment with a polar bear at the zoo. Joanna found it amusing to see the polar bear seemingly scared of water, although it was likely just assessing the distance for a jump or simply didn’t want to get wet. The zoo where Joanna filmed the bear only houses female polar bears. During the video, the bear was also seen playing with a food enrichment toy, tossing it into the water and retrieving it repeatedly. The bear only spent a few seconds in the water before grabbing the toy and returning to land to continue its playful antics.
