A western Massachusetts man got the surprise of his life while he was taking a nap by his pool on Sunday. While he was sleeping, a bear came into the pool area, and after hanging by the pool the for a few moments, the bear went over to see what he was up to.
Dawn Bete of Greenfield, MA shared a video, that was captured on the family’s Ring camera.
“Matt was a little startled yesterday while taking a rest by the pool,” she said
Bete said her husband was sleeping by their pool on Saturday when the bear wandered into the area through an open gate.
“He wasn’t sure how he should react but knew he couldn’t get up that fast,” Bete wrote of her husband’s experience on Facebook. “But at least he had another chair and table between them if needed. Luckily it went running out soon after the encounter.”
