This Woman Is Friends With A Wild Bear And Now Are Inseparable

I have been pleading and begging my mother to adopt a dog for as long as I can remember. And just like a typical Indian mother, her response is “First learn to take care of yourself then we’ll talk about getting a dog.” And when I see any of my friends or even a random stranger with their pet, it’s a bittersweet moment. I have had friends who’ve not just stopped with cats, birds, and dogs as pets but also have adopted snakes (not even kidding). I thought that was the most absurd pet I’d come across, but I guess I was wrong. This Russian woman has a wild bear as a pet after they struck up a friendship with each other.

Recently, in 2019, a Russian woman, Veronica Dichka, rescued and saved this wild bear while touring in a safari park. And after spending some time with the bear, both of them established a great friendship. In fact, Veronica Dichka even named the wild bear Archie.

Ever since Veronica Dichka rescued Archie, they have had a beautiful friendship that has just been growing. It has grown to a point where they both are inseparable. In fact, Veronica Dichka never leaves the brown bear alone and lets him tag along in any activity that she does. They both eat together, go fishing together, go boating together, and Archie, the wild brown bear, even shares a bed with her. 

According to Veronica Dichka, the Russian woman, she states that even though some of the bears are known to be carnivores, she is sure that nothing could ever go wrong between her and her bear friend Archie. To prove their friendship and love to be real, Veronica Dichka and Archie even did numerous photoshoots together – wherein they are seen riding on a fishing boat together.

As per Veronica Dichka, she says that their friendship is extremely close-knit and she loves talking to the wild bear, Archie. She even says that Archie sees her as a motherly figure and hides behind her when he is scared. Her photoshoots and her friendship with Archie have earned her a lot of following and praise for living with a wild bear that is generally considered to be ferocious.

And if their friendship isn’t cute enough for you then I honestly don’t know what is. I mean, even though I wouldn’t ever consider having a wild bear as a pet (cause I am scared) – I honestly am in awe of their friendship and their bond. Their bond leaves me with just this one thought – if you don’t harm or portray any danger to the animals, they won’t harm you; they attack only when they think you are a threat (unlike humans). Read on, while I go and try convincing my mom again for a dog!
