This family is un-bear-lievable! Meet the household that sits down to dinner with A BEAR at the table.

While Svetlana and Yuriy Panteleenko, from Russia, might seem like any other ordinary couple, they have an extra-ordinary pet – a 23-year-old bear named Stepan.

At more than 7ft tall, Stepan is so domesticated that the family have been known to sit down in the evenings to watch the television together and he even steps in to help with household chores by watering the plants.
