Colorado wildlife officials seeking bear with plastic bucket stuck on head

Sometimes humans really need to help out animals in the wild. Late last week Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) said they were trying to locate a bear photographed with a plastic bucket stuck around its head. They say the bear has been spotted at least twice with the bucket stuck around its head, most recently Thursday morning (July 8th) on Grace Miller’s deck in Camino Bosque. A CPW spokesman said the bucket doesn’t appear to be causing the bear any pain or affect its mobility, and that the animal seems like it can still eat and drink. He added that officials are concerned about what might happen when the bear puts on weight later in the season. At the time of this writing the bear had not been found.
