A black bear at a Chinese zoo stole the show when it unexpectedly showcased its dance moves to a delighted crowd.

In a short 9-second clip, a tourist initiated a popular Chinese dance, the "Flower Handshake," where your wrists are joined and your hands move in a circular motion above your head. The man signaled the dance to three black bears, encouraging them to "shake a flower hand."

While two bears seemed perplexed by the command, one bear turned into the breakout star by perfectly mimicking the dance, much to the amusement of the spectators.

Although some skeptics question the authenticity of the bear's dance skills (some think it was deceptive), many were impressed by the unexpected performance.

Bears are becoming the unexpected entertainers of Chinese zoos and capturing the internet's attention.

However, just like the waving Malaysian sun bear at Hangzhou Zoo, the bear invading a refrigerator for lasagna, and the bear crashing a family BBQ, these animals seem only to be evolving and picking up more human-like mannerisms.

According to Chinese news outlet Hangzhou Daily, despite some skeptics questioning whether these bears are humans in disguise, the playful antics seem to draw more visitors to the zoos.

The North China Zoo, home to the dancing bear, may experience a surge in tourists eager to witness the next TikTok performance.

Similar incidents in other Chinese zoos have led to notable increases in visitor numbers, emphasizing the public's fascination with these talented bears.

In August, when the waving bear went viral, the Hangzhou Zoo noticed a 30% increase in visitor numbers in the eastern Zhejiang province a day after the video of the Malaysian sun bears lit up Chinese social media.

“After seeing this bear standing up on the internet, I wanted to see how it looks in real life, so I came here,” said a man who added that he did not fully believe the video he saw online.
