Watch: Bear steals picnic food with mother and son sitting inches away!

A bear crashed a picnic and feasted on the meal while a mother and her son sat on the bench inches away.

In the video, posted to TikTok by Silvia Macias, the bear can be seen on top of a picnic table in Chipinque, a park in Mexico, while Silvia Macias and her son Santiago sit on the bench. The bear consumes their lunches as Macias covers her son's eyes.

She holds Santiago into her shoulder and covers his eyes to keep him calm. The mother explained Santiago has Down syndrome and is afraid of animals, even those less dangerous than bears.

The bear eventually wandered away after eating its fill. Macias credited her experiences as a midwife and a yoga instructor for her ability to keep her cool with the bear only inches away.

Watch!
