17 Wet & Hairy Photos from Bear Carnival

The biggest bear pool party in Europe -- Wet & Hairy -- is back to Maspalomas Gay Pride, May 11 at Hotel AxelBeach Maspalomas, on Gran Canaria in Spain's Canary Islands.

Why should you go? Think about the funny music by Ansfrid & Meier, sexy bear go-gos, free sauna, hamman, and jacuzzis, animation, games, and ... wait for it ... an exclusive giant slide for the total "bear water park" experience.

Wet & Hairy is a production of Bear Carnival, Gran Canaria's Bear Week. More than 300 bears and admirers gathered for its last pool party. A reminder: Show Bears.

Thanks to the guys at BearCarnival.com and photographer Hector Gomez Herrero for the photos.
