A black bear was lowered from a tree by a local fire department in Denton, Michigan, on June 10.
The Roscommon Township Fire Department was called to assist the Michigan Department of Natural Resources to safely remove the animal, which had climbed approximately 65 feet into a tree after being hit with a tranquilizer dart.
Video posted to Facebook shows the bear being lowered gently to the ground by a rope. Local news reported that the bear would be tagged and released back into its natural habitat. Credit: Roscommon Township Fire Department via Storyful
