Bear With Head Stuck In Jar Is Rescued In Jamison City, Pennsylvania

JAMISON CITY, Pa. -- Four central Pennsylvania residents said they used only a rope and a flashlight during a wild chase to rescue a young bear whose head had been stuck in a plastic jar for at least 11 days. The frightened but powerful bruin fell into a swimming pool at least twice during the ordeal, according to a report Saturday in the Press Enterprise of Bloomsburg (://bit.ly/166z97k). But the group eventually yanked off the jar and set the animal free.
