A Colorado bear has stepped into the spotlight after taking hundreds of “selfies” on a park ranger’s observational camera.
The apparent photo shoot took place on one of nine motion-detecting cameras in the Open Space and Mountain Parks (OSMP) system, which spans 46,000 acres.
These cameras are set to passively capture photos and videos that help give insight into the movements and habits of the local species. The park places its cameras in areas likely to have animal traffic, or where signs of wildlife activity such as footprints have previously been seen.
While these cameras typically capture animals going about their normal lives, park officials were amused to find nearly 400 images of the same bear, according to an Instagram post by the OSMP.
