Matthew Bete was sleeping by his swimming pool at his home in Greenfield, Massachusetts last weekend when a bear came to explore. Intrigued, the animal came to sniff his feet, before touching him with its paw, which woke Matthew.

It was his wife who posted the images on social media. These had been taken by a home surveillance camera. “Matth texted me a picture of the bear running in the yard and explained that the bear gave him a paw kick while he was sleeping by the pool. Of course, I thought so. he was joking “.
