Polar bears (two-part nomenclature: Ursus maritimus) is the largest bear species in the bear family. Despite their slow and stout appearance, they are excellent climbers. Polar bears often climb craggy cliffs to catch baby birds to eat.
But this risky move sometimes also costs them dearly. A polar bear has been trapped for several days at a craggy cliff. Fortunately for it, a rescue team discovered the incident and managed to rescue it.
They used both boats below and helicopters above, but rescuing the bear was not easy. The rescue team had to shoot anesthetic and then climb up to where the bear was lying to tie the lifeline.
The bear will be released slowly to the bottom so as not to injure it. However, because the rope was too loose, the bear fell off and hit the cliff before falling into the water. Finally, the rescue team was able to save the bear and bring it ashore.
