RFK Jr says he was behind mystery of dead bear dumped in Central Park with bicycle

In a video on X, the independent presidential candidate said he and his friends thought the prank in New York would be funny

Independent presidential candidate Robert F Kennedy Jr released a bizarre video on Sunday in which he admitted that, a decade ago, he dumped a dead bear cub in New York's Central Park and staged the scene to make it look like a bicyclist had run over the animal.

The video was apparently an effort to combat an upcoming New Yorker story that he predicted will be a bad story".
