A bear has been captured waving goodbye to a photographer.
Bear waves at photographer
The beastly looking creature turned his charm on after happy snapper, 25-year-old Dylan, took a picture of him and waved goodbye only for the animal to return the kind gesture.
Dylan told The Daily Mirror newspaper: ''I went to Olympic National Park to see the bears and to enjoy a weekend of camping.
''When I was leaving I said 'goodbye bear!' and waved at it, then he waved back. I couldn't believe it. I was no more than 10 feet away from the bear, separated by a small wire fence.
''He didn't seem threatening at all, and it was almost tempting to go up and hug him.''
