Adventurer and naturalist David De Meulles was recently traveling with two tourists in the Canadian wilderness when he spotted something truly amazing. The group stumbled upon a polar bear as it approached a Canadian Eskimo dog.

“I had no idea what was going to happen, and then sure enough he started petting that dog, acted like he was a friend. It was a beautiful sight to see,” he said.

The dog was chained up in an open space, a practice that is discouraged in areas with polar bears. Instead of harming the friendly pooch, the polar bear approached the dog and started to rub its fur.

“I’ve known the bears to have somewhat friendly behavior with dogs, but for a bear to pet like a human would pet a dog is just mind-blowing,” he said.

The entire encounter was captured on film and it’s a truly amazing experience.
