相亲相爱:北极熊和饲养员的快乐生活

Grizzly man Mark Dumas and Agee the polar bear do everything together. They swim together, wrestle together, roll in the grass together... even nap together. They have been polar pals since Agee was six weeks old and the colossal mammal even lived in Mark's home as a cub where she played with the family dogs and was bottle fed. Mark, 60, said: 'If anyone else tried this they would end up as Agee's dinner. "The only people in the whole world she likes are me and my wife." "I have worked with bears in this way for over 40 years, so I can read Agee's body language and know how to behave safely around her." Mark and wife Dawn, 60, train the 60-stone (800lb) friendly beast — the world's largest land predator — to star in high-budget TV adverts. She has even performed in movies like 'Alaska' in 1995 when she was just a few weeks old. With his incredibly intimate bond Mark wrestles on the grass with Agee, kisses her, puts his head in her huge jaws, and even bear hugs her as she rears up on her hind legs to over seven feet.

饲养员Mark Dumas和北极熊Agee几乎每天都在一起。他们一起游泳，一起摔跤，一起滚草地，甚至还一起打盹。在Agee六周大的时候，Mark Dumas就成了他的饲养员。当时，Agee还在他家住了一段时间，她每天都和Mark家的狗狗们一起玩耍。今年60岁的Mark表示，Agee在这个世界上最爱的就是他和他的妻子。Mark有着40多年的养熊经验，在他的调教下，Agee从小就是一个炙手可热的动物明星。还出演过电影《阿拉斯加》。
