These two cubs along with their mother bear were caught on video lounging in backyard of a Warren County family. Watch video
These bears seem to think hammocks are part of their bare necessities.
The two cubs and their mother bear can be seen lounging in the video above in backyard of a Warren County family last month.
Carol Harrington, of Washington, said she shot the video Aug. 23 from her Lenape Trail home.
"I started by taking pictures and thought, you know what, you can't capture this cuteness in a photograph," Harrington said. "So I started taking the video and it just took off from there."
Carol and Walter Harrington's property is adjacent to woods, but they said it's been a long time since they last encountered a bear.
"We get everything from your basic little squirrel to deer to turkeys," she said. "Everything comes through here, but we haven't seen a bear in 13 years. This was quite exciting to see."
The Harringtons noticed the bears about 9 o'clock that morning after they heard their dog growling at the back door. Carol said she videotaped for about two minutes -- and mama and the cubs might have stayed longer.
"We finally shooed them away because the mother started sticking her head through the hammock and we didn't want her to get stuck," she said.
