After almost a month of frustration and fear, the bear in Florida was finally able to get its head out of the plastic box.
The bear was first seen with the plastic box upside down in Collier County, located in the south of the state.
This is stated by employees at Florida Fish and Wilflife opposite CBS News.
But after being seen twice, the bear disappeared. And it would be over three weeks before it was seen again.

– We think it was part of an automatic animal reserve, due to the hole near the bear’s mouth. Fortunately, the bear gained access to water and food through the hole, writes Florida Fish and Wildlife on Facebook and continues:
– Even after 28 days of use, the bear was still in good physical shape!
Praise in the comments field
The female bear was treated with antibiotics and had the wound cleaned. After a day and a half of observation, she was released in a safe area in the Picayune Beach State Forest.
