The nonprofit Single Vision animal sanctuary in Melrose, Fla. cares for a variety of wild creatures, including bears, primates and big cats while educating the public on the dangers our exotic wildlife are facing in the wild.

And their 18-month-old Syrian brown bear cub named Bruiser Bear loves to swim.

Bruiser easily scales the pool ladder, diving in, and immediately tries to hang ten on the floating surfboard as Single Vision founder Carl Bovard records video.

Also in the video is Honey Bear, an 18-month-old North American black bear, but it doesn't look like she likes to swim as much as her brother.
