Gentle Rescue Bears Mercilessly Shred Pumpkins

Three orphaned bears that can regularly be seen in videos gently interacting with caretakers at a wildlife rescue center in Otisville, New York, let their wild side show recently, as they shredded pumpkins with tooth and claw.

Video shared by the Orphaned Wildlife Center shows the bears Jenny, Amy, and Sonya chewing and clawing at the pumpkins.

Founded by Jim Kowalczik, Susan Kowalczik, and Kerry Clair in 2015, the Orphaned Wildlife Center, in Otisville, New York, nurtures its animal residents, in the hope they can be returned to the wild.

The center often releases videos and updates about the animals in its care to its YouTube channel and Facebook page. Credit: Orphaned Wildlife Center via Storyful
