A black bear fell about 15 feet from a tree in Salt Lake City after wildlife officials tranquilized it but couldn’t provide it a soft landing
A black bear who had ventured into a Salt Lake City neighborhood from the nearby mountains took a 15-foot tumble from a tree Wednesday morning after it was tranquilized by wildlife officials, who were unable to provide it a soft landing. The 2-year-old male black bear perched above the tree-lined streets at the base of Utah's Capitol Hill took a hard fall onto the road below but survived.
They had been working to set up a bucket truck beneath the tree to break its fall but could not secure it in time. Crews loaded the bear into a tube-like cage, administered a fast-acting drug to reverse the effects of the tranquilizers and tagged its ear to track its location. Residents had gathered just a few blocks north of downtown to watch officials capture the animal, and many winced as it hit the ground.
