Bear does morning gymnastics and goes viral

A video of a bear performing what appears to be morning gymnastics has gone viral on social media in Latvia. The footage, captured by a wildlife camera near the Seda bog, shows the bear rolling on the forest floor, stretching its paws, and using acrobatic movements to rub its back against a tree trunk. This behavior was previously recorded of the same bear, sparking amusement among online users who humorously commented on the bear's 'exercise routine.' However, nature conservation authorities have warned that Latvia's growing bear population necessitates caution for people collecting berries or mushrooms in the country's extensive forests, advising them to remain quiet and careful to avoid startling the animals. Seda is located approximately 130 kilometers northeast of Riga, Latvia's capital.
