The cheerful play of two bears cooling off in a pond amidst the unmelted snow in the high reaches of the Taurus Mountains, while enjoying the greenery, was captured on the mobile phone cameras of citizens heading to Göktepe Plateau, revealing magnificent moments of nature.
Despite the arrival of summer, snow masses remaining from winter persist in the high elevations of the Taurus Mountains. Citizens heading to the Göktepe Plateau noticed two bears gliding down from the mountain peaks.
Reaching the snowdrift at the foothills, the bears slid across the snow and immediately entered the small pond below. After cooling off in the water for a while, the pair then moved to the grassy area.
PLAYFUL MOMENTS IN THE GREEN AREA
The bears coming side by side in the green area and playing with each other created colorful scenes. The moments when the bears chased each other, rolled on the grass, and enjoyed nature were recorded by citizens on their mobile phones.
THEY DISAPPEARED FROM SIGHT
After spending more time in the area, the bears then climbed back toward the high elevations as they had come and disappeared from sight. These natural moments of the bears sliding on the snow, cooling off in the pond, and playing on the grass remained an unforgettable memory for those on the plateau.
