Ford Super Duty diesel to the rescue. Love the sound of that big diesel clucking away.

::(|) ::(|) ::(|) That was clever using a ladder and using your truck to deliver the ladder without getting mauled by mama bear.

Apparently this was the 3rd time they had to rescue dumpster cubs which is why it was so well coordinated. People fail to secure the skip, bears know it is a food source, they keep comming back and this clever couple created a quick and clever solution. #5 agreed. Faith resored in humanity.

Not to be a bummer here but it's funny people will go out of their way to help animales which is the right thing to do,but often will do nothing to help people in great need...ever seen a person eat from a dumpster?
