On this day 45 years ago: Hercules the Bear was found in North Uist. He had been filming a Kleenex advert on Benbecula, when he disappeared after going for a swim. Presumed dead, he turned up 3 weeks later alive, but 15 stone lighter. The domesticated, celebrity bear was used to eating cooked food at a dinner table, and had starved, rather than eat wildlife on the island.

He went on to appear in chats shows and even alongside James Bond in Oc*****sy. Hercules died in 2000, aged 25 (around the natural lifespan of a grizzly). He's pictured here playing with his wrestler owner Andy Robin.

Just waiting for my adopted guests to arrive 😊
