"Come to Perm and not tug the ear of the legendary Perm bear? It's almost a crime against local folklore! 😄 Of course, you can't joke around with a real bear - it's really better to keep your distance, even visual contact can be risky. But a bronze bear on the streets of Perm is a different matter!"
