Scared bear cub being forced to mingle with lions and monkeys

August 28, 2009 @ 8:06 pm

The video description says that the zookeepers are trying to instill natural instincts back into this bear but I don’t see how this is effective at all. What is the bear supposed to do? Fight? Eat the lions and monkey?

Winkers are jeans with clever prints at the bends

A company called Winkers is selling jeans that look as if an animal is winking at you by utilizing the crease points on the back of jeans.

If you want a custom-made costume like this, you can request one for about $2000, but know that you’ll have to wait in line as there’s currently quite a lot of commissions to be done. Check out the video below of the costume in action.
