Occurred on August 28, 2020 / Front Royal, Virginia, USA
Info from Licensor: "I live south of a small town called Front Royal, which is located at the north entrance to Shenandoah National Park in the United States. In a given month, I have anywhere from 8-10 black bears that pass through with most not stopping even for one second. I put out this tub of water because I wanted to see what kind of tree frogs live in the area and hopefully encourage more so they eat mosquitoes and other bugs. I had seen a deer drink from it and a family of raccoons used it to rinse off their food, but hadn't seen a bear use it and certainly no tree frogs. On a late August day, when the temperatures tickled 95 degrees F, this bear had its own ideas. It hung out for a couple of minutes and then begrudgingly took off into the forest."
