It's not that oral sex has never been seen in bears. Researchers and zookeepers have observed it in several captive bears, but those bears were living in sub-standard conditions, with inadequate mental stimulation.

Over 116 hours of observations were conducted over the course of six years, by a group of researchers led by Agnieszka Sergiel of the Polish Academy of Sciences Department of Wildlife Conservation. They recorded 28 instances of oral sex between the two bears, both male, who lived together in a sanctuary in Croatia. They write:
