Man from Dushanbe, Tajikistan has pet bear since 1990. He found 1.5 month old bear in house of his friends from mountain village . They told him mother bear was kill by huntermen and bear cub was found with broken paw in the ravine. Man liked the bear and exchanged him for the bag of flour and a goat (just like story from Borat).
The bear cub turn to be female. That time Russia TV showed “Just Maria” Mexican tv show. So he name bear for the afta show character.
“I fed her like a baby, even gave her breast milk so it grow smart. And it became smart and very kind, like people very much. She became like a daughter to me, or like granddaughter”

“Thousands people pass by and don’t say ‘hello’, I say to Maria, Look Maria, people stopped greet each other, and they still call themselves humans. Let’s teach them. Stand up. Bear stands up and makes bows to people, and I say look and become smarter after my bear”
He and bear travel around other ex-Soviet republics – Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan (hi Borat), Uzbekistan. He say he loves his bear like a real daughter. He calls her “daughter” as well. He himself had 13 kids.
In 2012 old man dies. He was over 80 y.o. The bear was taken to the zoo. First days she couldn’t sleep, refused to eat. Little by little she gave up and later made friends with zoo workers.
