"Da Bears!"

AFlorida resident was awed by the sight of a bear fighting with two alligators when he was out kayaking.
Tyler Futrell was sailing along St Johns River when he caught sight of a bear crossing the water. After pulling out his phone to film the animal, he realized that the bear was swimming into the path of two alligators.
In the video, the black bear approaches the reptiles before lashing out, while still in the water. All three creatures survived the encounter.
Speaking to Fox News about the event, Futrell said: "I was thinking I was getting ready to see some National Geographic stuff, and boy was I right. I could live a million years and I doubt I'd ever be lucky enough to see that again."
He also said that the event had become inspiration for his songwriting career, saying: "It doesn't get cooler that. It's a bear fighting a dragon!"

Any bear that can kayak should be able to handle a couple of gators.
Bear went kayaking?

A REAL Florida Man woulda dove in and got involved! LOL! 😂
St Johns is a big river. I didn’t see a mention of which part.
It was unfair, 2 against 1........................
He was just looking for the bear 🐻 necessities (pun intended).
Well I couldn't find it. First video shows an alligator eating another dead alligator. The second is some guy filming the water with no bear and no alligator in sight. I want my time back.
a guy talking to himself, filming the reflection of trees in the water.
Yes. Two alligators 🐊 against one bear 🐻. Life can be so bizarre sometimes.
Sorry, but at the link is a video of a gator dragging around a dead gator. Do you have the link of the bear vs. two gators?
I root for the mammal if the other party is a reptile.
Yes, the video is of a guy exclaiming over what he is seeing while pointing the camera down at the water.
Super 8, 16mm or 35mm Technicolor? Or perhaps he “videoed” it with his phone.
“Can I gets me an editor ‘round these parts?”
Jesus vs satan. Speed bump.
Poorly shot video. Let me describe it. Bear is swimming across the river, runs into 2 gators one at a time and they spring towards the bear and the bear just sort of pushes them away while continuing to swim. The gators seemed to get the message and after 1 attempt, they fall back and just watch the bear go.
