Tricia Hurt shared the video of this impressive rescue on her Facebook account. Released on June 28, we see a small bear swimming in the waters of Marsh-Miller Lake, in Wisconsin, in the United States. Problem: the bear has difficulty advancing because its head is stuck in what appears to be a plastic container.
Quickly, Tricia and her relatives, who were walking aboard a small boat on the lake, decide to help the animal. After a few moments, the Hurt family manages to get close enough to the little bear to remove the canister stuck on his head.
Tricia indicated on her Facebook account that the animal had managed to reach the shore after this rescue operation.
Since its publication last Sunday, the video has been viewed more than 900,000 times and hundreds of Internet users have thanked the family for their gesture.
