Headline: Bears Snooze Next To Power Lines

Caption: Canadian utility workers could bear-ly watch as two black bears decided to have a snooze on a power pole - next to a high voltage line. A crew working for Manitoba Hydro spotted two black bears on a transmission line near Sundown, Manitoba, on Wednesday (31 Oct). The company cut the power on the 66,000-volt transmission line while they decided on a game plan. Thankfully, workers were able to reach the bears and gently coax them down by waving poles near them. Manitoba Hydro said: "The bears have made it down safely. Definitely not a call our line workers go to every day. Let's hope these cubs learnt that hydro polls aren't the best place to snooze."
