What’re you playing at?
This filmer spotted a delightful scene on her commute in Campbell River, BC, involving a bear cub and a red balloon.
The cute black bear cub, with a bit more curiosity than common sense, played with a red balloon on a road by the river. This filmer was lucky enough to watch the adorable event unfold. The filmer shared, "It was amazing to see how distracted and playful the cub was. Mama made it to the other side before even noticing the baby. She looked annoyed, strolled back across, and nudged the baby to move on."

Oh deer!
This hilarious footage, with over 1 million views, captures a potential buyer arriving at a residence in Mays Landing, New Jersey, USA. As the buyer pulls up, a white-tailed deer unexpectedly leaps across the owners driveway, colliding with the truck bed and leaving a dent in the vehicle's side before casually walking away.
Jay, the owner, humorously remarked, "While there are plenty of deer around here, it's the first time we've witnessed one skilled in negotiating the sale of a vehicle. I had listed my 2007 Chevy Silverado on Facebook Marketplace, and a buyer from north Jersey expressed keen interest, insisting on purchasing the truck if the body matched the pictures. Assuring him of its pristine condition, he arrived with cash in hand. Just as he pulled into the driveway, a six-month-old buck made a surprise appearance.
"Remarkably, the truck took the hit like a champ. Despite the deer dent, the buyer went through with the purchase, securing a good deal. The dent is easily fixable. I caught the chaos in my peripheral vision while awaiting the buyer.
"The truck's buyer witnessed the incident, and while there wasn't much to say besides 'Can I get a copy of that video?'"

Weather mania
Seats and passengers travelling on a bus in Jilin City, China, found themselves dusted with a layer of snow, creating a serene yet unique experience on board.
In an eyewitness account, Ms. Wang shares her experience, attributing the snow accumulation on the bus's roof, possibly coupled with roof damage, to the interior being sprinkled with snowflakes as the vehicle moves along. "It feels quite romantic, just a bit chilly," remarks Wang. The Jilin City Public Transport Group's spokesperson responds to the situation, acknowledging that the ageing bus is awaiting replacement with a newer model.
