Famous on Instagram thanks to the charismatic photos next to the model, Stepan bear is now a real star, no longer a bear “parasitic” with his adoptive parents for 25 years as before.
If this Mid-Autumn Festival, you don’t have a “bear” to be taken out, then, sit at home, sip a cup of tea in silence and calm down and see this set of super beautiful and romantic photos of the girl with the bear. A Russian girl with a fiery body, lying in the arms of a giant bear, creates photos that are both mysterious, attractive and very charismatic!
The couple who have raised the 24-year-old “bear model” in the photo above are Svetlana and Yuri Panteleenko, living in Moscow. Just like any other normal family, the couple and the bear enjoy walking, eating together, playing sports and taking pictures, creating the best conditions for Stephan the bear to promote his talents.
The couple said they adopted the abandoned bear Stepan when he was 8 years old. They raised him like a family member for 24 years. According to the couple, Stephan the bear is extremely sociable with everyone, is naughty and eats very well. Stepan eats 25 pounds of fish, vegetables and eggs every day, keeps his body strong, and knows how to play football. In addition, he is also an extremely expensive “model bear” advertising on Instagram. He used to take pictures in the Christmas movie “Fir Tree 4”, playing the main character as well!
This couple adopted Stepan 25 years ago, and now they are still living together causing many to joke that Stepan bear is a bit like…parasite!
However, after 25 years of marriage, this family is still very peaceful, except that Stepan eats a little, it is not too big of a problem.
Maybe because he was bored with being criticized by people for “clinging” to his parents, Stepan went to work as a model himself to earn extra income? Whatever the reason, this bear is also very successful in his new job, because more and more famous models are booking photo shoots with Stepan as a way to polish his name.
Partly because Stepan is so approachable and friendly, the other part is because the bears have become the symbol of the whole of Russia! Even the 1980 Summer Olympics were held in this country, the bear was chosen as the mascot!
According to photographer Olga Barantseva, her series of photos taken with Stepan and the beautiful models are intended only to bring the audience to a different perspective on the animal world: Not all large animals are ferocious and predators! At the same time, the photo series also raises awareness for the campaign against hunting rare animals, especially bears.
The list of beautiful models who have taken pictures with Stepan is endless, including the bride preparing to get on the flower car, the pregnant mother, who is not afraid when standing next to the bear weighing nearly 2 pounds.
