Watch ‘human’ sun bear enjoy some honey at UK wildlife park

This is the adorable moment sun bear Kyra enjoys some honey at her home in Paradise Wildlife Park in Hertfordshire.

Small mammal keeper Shona is seen filling a long, clear tube with honey, much to the delight of Kyra, who uses her large tongue to lick all of the honey out of the tube.

The sun bear’s tongue is between 7.9 and 11.8 inches long, or 20–30 cm, zookeepers say.

Sun bears have been attracting global attention for their human-like’ features.
