There are many amazing things in the world. There are cat people, there are dog people, and there are bear people, and we are not talking about safe crackers. Panteleenko's family has been raising a real brown bear named Stepan for more than 20 years: when his mother died, the hunters took the bear cub with them. Clubfoot is now 23 years old, he eats 25 kilograms of fish, vegetables and eggs for lunch and, grown by people, is quite harmless to humans.

This time, photographer Olga Barantseva captured Stepan and the Panteleenko family in her photographs. Her photo project is part of an anti—hunting campaign.
