In Türkiye’s Bitlis province, bears living in the Nemrut Caldera, the world’s second-largest crater lake, were seen plunging into the icy waters to escape the summer heat. Tourists filmed the animals swimming and playing, creating striking wildlife scenes.
A mother bear and her two cubs also approached picnickers’ tables in search of food. Experts warned visitors not to feed the bears or leave food out, stressing that close encounters disrupt natural behavior and pose risks to both humans and animals.
