Dave & Chuck the Freak are not convinced that this bear, captured in a viral video at a Chinese zoo, is not a human in a bear costume.

00:00A zoo in China has been forced to deny allegations that one of its bears is actually just a human
00:13wearing a costume.
00:15Hangzhou Zoo in China has had to issue a bizarre statement clarifying that a bear at the zoo
00:21is in fact a real bear, not just an unfortunate employee that has to wear a bear costume.
00:26The odd claims started popping up online after a video was posted on Twitter featuring the
00:33bear in its enclosure interacting with the public.
00:36One shot shows the back of the bear and the skin folds at the bottom of its back just
00:44over its ass.
00:46Here's...
00:47Oh, that doesn't look real.
00:48Yeah, that looks weird.
00:50That looks like, you know, when I used to work at the theme park, if someone had to fill
00:54in in a costume and they were too tiny for it.
00:56Too short.
00:57Yeah.
00:57That's how the costume would bunch up, right?
00:59I'm in Dave's bear costume.
01:01Right.
01:02If I wear the costume, but then, you know, you had to put it on quickly to fill in for
01:06me.
01:06Yeah.
01:07That's how it would look.
01:08And they also say that the bear doesn't move like you would expect a bear to move.
01:16It moves more like a human.
01:20Here's the video and you guys can judge for yourself.
01:23To me, that head does not look real.
01:25Oh, it looks fake.
01:28Oh, okay.
01:28It's a man.
01:30That's a man.
01:32Guys, that's a man.
01:33Haven't they been known to do this before?
01:35Yeah, there was a story we did one other time where there were like dogs.
01:39They were like, these are bears.
01:40Right.
01:41Or even like lions or tigers.
01:43Yeah, they were lions.
01:44That's what they...
01:44Painted them to look like...
01:45Guys, that's a man.
01:46Yeah, it is.
01:47You can check this out for yourself at DaveAndChuckTheFreak.com.
01:50We put the evidence up there so you can look at.
01:53The zoo says this is a real bear.
01:57No.
01:58Well, of course they're saying that.
02:00Yeah.
02:00Because they need...
02:01They say their temperatures have been so hot there, there's no way a human could last
02:07that long in a suit.
02:09Oh, they probably die every day and then they get something like that.
02:11The bear is a species called the sun bear.
02:17Sun bears can look a bit odd, they say, with a strange shaped body and a face.
02:22Let's look up sun bears.
02:24Which makes them look like a puppet, but they say they're very real.
02:30Can we watch this little clip again?
02:32They don't show a lot of it.
02:36That is not a real bear.
02:37There's no chance.
02:42The feet are flat to the ground like they're in flip-flops.
02:45I honestly think they might be.
02:48I don't know.
02:49It doesn't look real in some of the footage.
02:51It really doesn't.
02:52No.
02:52It also grabbed its arms in a way that I feel like only a human would do.
02:58Yeah, in 2019, a zoo in China was busted after it had two keepers dress as gorillas
03:04and leap around the enclosure there.
03:07And then there was the dogs as lion incident before.
03:11So, I mean, there's got a reason to be suspicious at Chinese zoos.
03:15Yeah.
03:16I mean, not right there.
03:17That's not a real motion, right?
03:19Okay, but watch the eyes and the mouth to see if you can see if they move naturally.
03:23That would be the dead giveaway then, right?
03:25Okay, so it hasn't closed its mouth at all.
03:28Oh, that time it did, but what was it doing?
03:33I don't know.
03:34It looks like it has man-cats, like man-thighs.
03:37It does.
03:38Man-feet.
03:40Man-ass.
03:41Not big enough to fill out the suit.
03:45Pot belly.
03:48You can go check it out for yourself.
03:50Is it man or is it bear?
03:52Yeah.
