Video footage shows the bear falling from the tree into a tarp held by firefighters.
A curious bear in Reno, Nevada found itself in a sticky situation Wednesday after climbing up a tree and getting stuck., the crew sent engine trucks to a "bear-y interesting call" on April 26 and had to use a fire truck ladder and salvage cover to help get the bear down from the tree on April 26.
Video footage, filmed by local resident Keith Bohn, shows a group of neighbors gathering to watch the scene unfold, cheering as the bear fell safely from the tree into a tarp held by firefighters. Bohn told video licensing agency Storyful that the bear wandered into his neighborhood Double Diamond early on Wednesday morning.
"Wildlife personnel were on scene for a while to monitor the bear and tranquilize it if it came down on its own. It did not," Bohn explained.The bear plummeted from a tree on to the fire crew's tarp. But this isn’t the first time that bears were caught on camera doing unusual things in the wild. Homeowner Olivia Germano uploaded the video to Facebook, noting that this was not the first time the group of bears had paid her a visit.
