Yeah, I'm looking at you, Jack Black. Meet your nemesis.
An Asiatic black bear at the Hiroshima City Zoo named Claude showed his awesomeness to visitors recently via his kung fu-like prowess at playing with a stick, twirling it about in a surprisingly dextrous way. The baseball team known as the Hiroshima Carp, impressed with his mad skills, decided to upgrade his arsenal to a baseball bat. The results can be seen in the video above. Kung Fu Panda can officially go suck it. We got the real thing.
