:canadaflag: Swimming with polar bears?... are you kidding me!...

[size=large]There's a place in the world where children can swim among polar bears.
Since July 2004, in the little town of Cochrane , northern Ontario ,
you can visit the Polar Bear Habitat
It's a kind of local zoo where people can live the once-in-a-lifetime
experience of an outdoor swim with polar bears.

Vernon here; OK, at first I thought "RIGHT!, come on, this will never happen but look at the photo's and then read at the bottom

[size=large]Of course, the humans are in a different pool, separated from the bears'
habitat by just a layer of glass.

Can you see the water drops now?

There's a bullet proof, shatterproof glass that's almost 9 centimeters
thick, because although they're cute, polar bears are among the world's most
ferocious carnivores.

It took 20 years for the Polar Bear Conservation and Education Habitat and
Heritage Village to get off the ground.

When it opened it attracted some 11,000 visitors in the first six months.

And now you're invited to go and swim with all those bears if you dare.
