14 DAY TRIAL // Rubbing noses can be a quite pleasant experience, but I dare say most people would be fairly hesitant to share one such moment of intimacy with an Alaskan bear. The man pictured above, on the other hand, appears to have no such issues.
Then again, Doug Seus and his wife Lynne are both professional bear trainers, and say that they have a very special relationship with the animals in their care, which is probably why the man does not seem all that bothered by his being so close to an Alaskan bear. Daily Mail tells us that Doug and Lynne first started training bears for the entertainment industry back in 1973, and that one of their animals, i.e. Bart the Bear, stared in a movie with Anthony Hopkins and Brad Pitt.
Bart the Bear 2, which is pictured above, is also quite famous. Thus, he has been featured on HBO's “Game of Thrones” series, and, judging by its acting skills, could soon land new jobs.
Apart from trying to make a name for itself in the movie industry, Bart the Bear 2 and its sister, Honey Bump, work as ambassadors for the couple's Vital Ground charity, and do their best to educate people about the need to protect their relatives in the wild.
