Dare to friendship with 800lb grizzly bear?
Most animal lovers would be happy to have a dog, or even a cat as their constant and loyal companion.

The pair are inseparable and are so close that when Anderson married Charlie and the Chocolate Factory actress Missi Pyle in August last year, the bear stood in as best man.
Brutus is never left out and even joins in the Anderson family thanksgiving activities
