Jarhead the bear cub freed from plastic prison
In Ocala Florida a six month old black bear cub nicknamed Jarhead was freed after a clear plastic container was stuck on its head for at least ten days. Biologists said the cub was near death from starvation and dehydration before the removal by tranquilizing the mother and freeing the cub. The cub and mother were relocated after the episode.
