An Unexpected Sight
Trooper Owens did not expect to see what was causing the holdup on the highway. There, stopping traffic was an enormous black bear. It was stomping back and forth on the wide, open road. Its claws scratching against the tarmac. It was pacing aggressively back and forth across the road. The scene was chaos. Thomas yelled for people to return to the safety of their cars.
The drivers scrabbled back into their cars when they heard Thomas’ warning. They quickly went back to the safety of their vehicles. But Thomas was completely exposed, on foot, had nowhere to turn.
