In 2013, Wang Kaiyu, a Yunan resident in China, bought two cute black puppies, one male and one female, who were playful and well-behaved. And then they started to show signs that were unusual for dogs. For one thing, they never barked. They also grew to more than 100 pounds each. Two years later Kaiyu finally figured out his beloved pets weren't in the canine family at all.

It wasn't until Wang saw a pamphlet about endangered wild animals that he realized he had raised two Asian black bears, a Category 2 protected species, by accident. He decided to give the cubs up to the Forest Public Security Bureau in the hopes that they would be able to re-home them.

The teenager cubs are now at the Yunnan Wild Rescue Center where they seem to be happy and healthy.
