Young bear injured in road accident returns to wild

A young brown bear that sustained a head injury in a collision with a vehicle last month has been returned to the wild, a wildlife protection organisation that cared for her has announced.

The young bear, named "Glyka" (Sweetness) at the Arcturos wildlife veterinary hospital where she was taken for treatment, made a full recovery after she was hit by a vehicle on October 13 near the village of Neapoli in Kozani.

"When the door of the transportation cage was opened, Glyka rushed out and disappeared into the forest," Arcturos said. [AMNA]
