Parents Brian and Tricia Brady, along with their adult son Brady, were fishing from the family boat on the calm waters of Wisconsin’s Marsh Miller Lake when they saw a small black bear swimming and struggling to breathe because its head was stuck in a cheese puff pastry. container on June 27, 2020.
Brady carefully climbed the boat next to the bear and Brian managed to grab the plastic tub, but the terrified bear’s struggle with the slipping wet plastic caused Brian to lose his grip on the tub.
Brady manages to walk around the bear again and stand next to him again so Brian can make his second attempt. Both Brian and Brady showed excellent timing and skill, both in boat speed and steering and in grabbing and pulling the tub, just in time.
They couldn’t encourage the bear to come towards them, so they had to turn around and climb next to the bear twice to try and get a good hold of the container.
The three family members helped rescue a black bear cub, who was destined for a dark fate, either drowning in a plastic tub full of water or starving over time with its head stuck in the tub .
All family members were sure of their goals. They wanted to save the bear from a terrible fate, no matter how many passes it took. They wanted to keep the boat from capsizing and knew they had to get the bear off the boat!
