A 3-legged bear spent the holiday weekend splashing around the pool at Performing Animals Welfare Society (PAWS) in California to beat the un-bear-able, triple-digit heat.

Mack, the black bear, was found orphaned in Claremont nearly a year ago and is now a permanent resident of the rescue.

"Because no two days on patrol are ever the same," deputies wrote on Facebook Monday.
