Man Has Pet Grizzly Bear Because Grizzly Bears Make Great Pets </noscript> For Mark Dumas, man’s best friend isn’t a beagle or even a border collie, rather he he opts for something a bit more feral. A 5-foot, 250 lbs, 18-month-old grizzly bear cub named Billy to be exact. Mark and his wife Dawn got Billy when he was just a 6-month-old cub and have been domesticating him from his savage, aggressive animal instincts ever since. Just watch as Billy goes to the local pub, plays pool, and hot tubs with Mark. No, it’s not a Russian bear on a unicycle, but it’s pretty damn close. The two even wrestle together right next to a big red pic-a-nic blanket. Billy, being only 18-months-old, will continue to grow as he matures into adulthood. What are the chances this could end badly? SEE MORE: • Group of Teens Pass Survival-Skills Course After Grizzly Bear Attack in Alaska • Killer Bear Eats Convicted Killer, Is Killed Follow Us
