Conservation Officer Rob Haberman (St. Cloud, MN) responded to an unusual call in Morrison County. While grouse hunting, a man was trapped in a tree near Little Falls for two hours as a mother bear and her cubs surrounded him. As the bears approached, the man fired a shot into the air. The shot had no effect in scaring the bears away. Haberman and three Morrison County deputies safely recovered the hunter from the tree and escorted the man out of the woods. The family of bears is still at large. |
