A bear that climbed an electric line in Cochise County, Arizona, put both its own safety and the area's electricity at risk. The dangerous situation ended without incident thanks to the successful intervention of an electrical worker who arrived at the scene.
A bear climbing a power pole in Arizona came face to face with death. It was unclear how the bear managed to climb so high, and there were concerns about it getting electrocuted, prompting authorities to be notified.
CALM INTERVENTION
Upon receiving the report, a worker named Werner Neubauer arrived at the scene and carefully prodded the bear with a fiberglass pole in an attempt to coax it away from the pole. Great care was taken to ensure the animal did not come into contact with the power lines.
SAFELY BACK ON THE GROUND
The bear, which insisted on staying at the top of the pole, eventually regained its balance and managed to descend to the ground without injury.
The incident provided a deep breath of relief for both onlookers and those watching.
