A video of a bear with a plastic container stuck on its head being rescued has been shared on Facebook. The clip, since being posted, has received a ton of positive reactions from netizens who have thanked rescuers for helping the animal out.
The video has been shared by MyFWC Florida Fish and Wildlife. A post shared along with the video details that bear had the container around its neck for over 28 days. It was successfully removed and the bear was eventually released back into the wild.
The team found out about the bear and monitored the area where it had been sighted but only managed to find the animal after over three weeks. “Staff set new traps and started night patrols of the neighbourhood. They finally spotted the 250lb female bear just before midnight,” explains the post.
“The bear biologist darted her and removed the plastic container from around her face,” it says further.
