Off The Record
A 400 Pound Black Bear Was Drowning In The Ocean, But One Man Refused To Let That Happen
It’s not new for a wild animal to wander off in the nearby resident areas to search for food and shelter. That’s what happened in Florida. A 400 pound black bear wandered off, and Wildlife officers had to sedate the bear to safely relocate it to its natural habitat, but that’s when things went horribly wrong.

They aimed, shoot successfully, but the dart made the bear panic and she ran straight in the ocean.

Just as she went in the water, the dart made her drowsy… and then she started to drown.

Not every hero wears cape! A biologist with the Wildlife Commission, Adam Warwick, didn’t let that happen, not minding the consequences of his actions…

“It was a spur of the moment decision. I had a lot of adrenaline pumping when I saw the bear in the water.”

He knew the risks, but did it anyway. In any moment the bear could find just a bit of energy to slice him in half by trying to protect itself from potential danger.
