LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) - When a black bear climbed a tree in a central Arkansas city and refused to come down, authorities turned to unconventional rescue tools: bouncy houses.
Foster the Bear - named for the residential street where he holed up in a tree - wouldn't budge from his branch Monday. So, authorities turned to a local hardware store owner who rents inflatable houses and castles for children's birthday parties.
They asked him to set up two of the bouncy contraptions beneath the tree. Then, wildlife officials shot the bear with tranquilizer darts.

(similar from Boulder, Colorado)...
The bear famously tranquilized on the University of Colorado campus last week, and immortalized in a viral photo by Colorado University student Andy Duann, met a tragic death early Thursday in the Denver-bound lanes of U.S. 36.
Colorado Parks and Wildlife officials said a 280-pound black bear that died on U.S. 36 after being hit by a car at about 5:40 a.m. Thursday was the same bear that became known worldwide last week after wandering onto the CU campus near the Williams Village dorm complex.

Yes, I read about that before and I think I'm pretty excited. They'll be able to grow a steak or something. Only bad thing is what will happen to the animals? There are, well, I don't know the numbers, but I would guess in the millions of farm animals? They're just going to get rid of the current supply and stop breeding? Then what, only place to see a cow or a chicken will be at the zoo? Well, I suppose that's better than mass-murder.
