Creative Design Studio (RKR4CDS)I was sent a link to this story yesterday - pretty neat!
A bear was walking across Rainbow Bridge (Old Hwy 40 at Donner Summit, Truckee, CA) on Sept 15, 2007 when two cars also crossing the bridge scared the bear into jumping over the edge of the bridge. Somehow the bear caught the ledge and was able to pull itself to safety.Authorities decided that nothing could be done to help Saturday night so they returned Sunday morning to find the bear sound asleep on the ledge. After securing a net under the bridge the bear was tranquilized, fell into the net, lowered, then woke up and walked out of the net. Â

DoodlebearsOh boy that would have scared the life out of me to see that bear jump over the edge of the bridge. Phew, thank goodness for those wonderful guys who saved the lovely bear. :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: I hope he lives to a very old age and has a wonderful life with no more jumping off bridges.
Hugs Jane.
puca bearsWhat an amazing story...........it says a lot for the phlegmatic character of the bear that he was sound asleep on the ledge the next morning - maybe he knew someone would rescue him!
Thanks for sharing, Bobbie
