A 120-pound Vermont black bear got its head stuck in a milk can. It took a state biologist, firefighters and police about 45 minutes to free the bear’s head after he was found late Sunday morning off Vermont Route 106 in Reading. Officials estimate the bear had its head stuck in the old fashioned milk can for at least six hours before it was found. Fish and Wildlife Biologist Forrest Hammond said the bear had been running and bumping into trees and boulders. Hammond used soap to lubricate the bear’s head so the can could be pulled off, but it didn’t work. Firefighters eventually helped him cut the can off. The bear was then sent on its way.
