Russian bears who are so addicted to aviation fuel they sniff it until they pass out!
These brown bears are keen to play with discarded barrels - because they have developed a nose for aviation fuel.
They take deep breaths for minutes at a time before digging a shallow hole and lying in a 'nirvana' position.
The fuel is used to power generators and helicopters used by nature reserve workers.
"I hope you've got plenty of fuel with you"
"I love the smell of Jet A1 in the morning"
"I think I'm flying!"
