It's the first time I seen this type. Depending on the angle, sometimes he looks like a dog, sometimes a bear, and sometimes just plain goofy.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    I found him at the Pittsburgh Zoo.

    Their normal habitat is in the Andes Mountains of Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, Bolivia, and Peru.
