It’s all fun and games when Winnie the Pooh gets his head stuck in a honey pot, but for Jarhead the bear cub it could have meant a slow, painful death:
The bear, his mother and two siblings regularly raided trash bins in Weirsdale, a small community in the vast Ocala National Forest.

The 6-month-old cub couldn’t eat or drink normally, and was days away from death when he was freed, biologists say.It took 10 days for officials to track down the bear family using baited traps and following up frantic leads by concerned residents.

After an overnight stay with his groggy mother, Jarhead and the whole family was moved to a less populated part of the forest for safety.
