Caught in the Act - Asian Black Bear's Winter Perfume Ritual!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this snapshot captured by Sergey Gorshkov, we witness a rare moment of an Asian black bear engaging in its unique scent-marking behavior. With the winter sun casting a warm glow on the snowy landscape of Land of the Leopard National Park, Russian Far East, this charismatic creature is caught red-handed - or rather, back-rubbed! As if auditioning for a prestigious perfume commercial, our furry protagonist elegantly leans against a towering tree trunk to leave its aromatic signature. With eyes closed and contentment radiating from every pore (quite literally!), it seems that even bears appreciate indulging in some self-care rituals. The majestic Asiatic black bear, also known as the moon bear due to its distinctive crescent-shaped chest patch, reminds us that nature holds endless surprises and wonders. This enchanting portrait showcases not only their territorial instincts but also their vulnerability as an endangered species. Let this image transport you to the untamed wilderness of Russia's far east where these magnificent creatures roam freely within protected areas. So next time you stumble upon your favorite fragrance at a department store counter, take a moment to imagine how different it would be if bears had their own line of perfumes – Eau de Ursus anyone?
