Lately there is a bear got popular in a zoo in Hangzhou. This kind of bear is Sun bear.
When I saw the photo at first, I thought this was a man dressed like a bear. This reminds me of a Korean movie which the zoo staff dressed and acted like animals in the zoo to attract more visitors
After I saw the several videos carefully, then I think this is a real bear rather than a fake one
As from another video, I found there were a few bears nearby. Although the Sun bear seems less dangerous, but it is still risky for a man to stay there. Besides, if there were a few Sun bears around, it is no need to make a fake bear. And I looked at this bear's neck and mouth and how it breathed, it is clearly that it is a real bear.
Of course the zoo claims that this is a real bear. What do you think?
This is one of the videos for your reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7lGaFIIVKsk

Yes, I believe that's a real bear.
I've seen the videos that some Japanese people are putting up online and the "animals" they're showing are people in costumes or dogs dressed up to look like lions and tigers. It's pretty funny!

@youless The way this bear stands is quite unusual . . . but maybe because we normally do not see such bears. But people are so sophisticated these days . . . there would be no fooling the zoo visitors . . . they would surely make out if it were fake or not. How funny real bears can fool real people .

You have done enough research to see if it is real and so it must be real (lol)
