A disoriented brown bear cub wobbled and whined as she sat belly-up in the back of a pick-up truck after eating an excessive amount of 'mad honey.' She was rescued in northwestern Turkey's Duzce province
ISTANBUL, Aug 11 - A disoriented brown bear cub, believed to have been intoxicated after eating an excessive amount of "mad honey", was rescued in northwestern Turkey's Duzce province on Thursday.
Footage showed the bear wobbling and whining as she sat belly-up in the back of a pick-up truck, after people rescued the visibly-debilitated animal from the forest. Mad honey, or "deli bal" in Turkish, is a type of rhododendron honey that can have hallucinogenic effects. The bear was brought to a vet, where she was receiving treatment and would likely be released into the wild in the coming days, local authorities said, adding that she was in good condition.Register now for FREE unlimited access to Reuters.com
