Tex is the name of the bear that made headlines this month in the sanctuary with a trick that’s right out of the movies – walking on water! The bear amazed everyone with his power of concentration, and for a few minutes it seemed that he really was walking on the surface of the water. He’s neither a magician nor a god of bears. But he’s very good at balancing, and the optical illusion was one of a kind. Actually, Tex only kept his balance on a stump that he rolled in the water himself.
In the past, Tex wanted with all his heart to be rid of the bars of the cage in which he lived for four years. He was a prisoner at a farm, an annex of the Uranium Plant in Feldioara (Braşov County). Finally, his dream of being free came true. This achievement still fascinates him, and now he wants to prove that anything he desires, he can achieve. Even… walking on water.
