Thank goodness they didn't shoot him.

Wow! That reminds me of last year, when a coyote was found in Manhattan!

Good news.

The 18 month old bear was set free today in the mountains north of downtown Vancouver.

probably looking for Pizza Hut. I know for a fact that bears love pizza crust. Nice outcome for the bear.

Kent in Kansas
where it's cold in winter (always)
and hot in summer (usually)
