Bear enjoying a swim across Lake Hopatcong caught on video

Apparently he didn’t get the “no swim” advisory, because this bear had absolutely no problem swimming across Lake Hopatcong.

THe bear paddles across the lake, gets out, shakes off the water, and scurries away. It’s a cool video of an impressive animal, and there’s no sign of an algae bloom. See the video, courtesy of News 12, below.
