  • Jim restores old tractors and has a neat collection. He took a break from sanding one of them, at the same time Leo decided to walk. Despite being covered in green dust Jim went to visit Leo, getting green dust on Leo too. A John Deere kinda bear.

      This isn’t a Kodiak, it’s a Syrian brown bear which is one of the smallest species of brown bear. A Kodiak bear would be twice as big. Look at his videos with Jimbo the Kodiak bear, that bear dwarfed this one by about 700 pounds and stood nearly 3 feet taller.

    Though is wonderful to see their interaction and how they trust each other, you always have to be careful. I believe Jim found him and Leo has growing up in Jim's company. That doesn't mean he doesn't have wild instincts, he does. It is always wise to read the mood of the animal and if something doesn't seem right, keep your distance
