The Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency (TWRA) had an unusual job on its hands earlier this week when it was called upon to rescue a bear cub that had got its head stuck in a plastic snack container.
The container, which had a screw on top, had gone over the bear’s head and was secured around its neck — preventing it from eating or drinking. The mishap was dangerous for the bear, which TWRA estimated had been trapped for at least a week by the time it was freed.
