A frightened bear cub got its head stuck in an oversized cookie jar while rummaging through some rubbish and had to be rescued from a tree in New Jersey.
The six-month-old cub apparently pulled the jar over its head as it tried to eat what remained inside, and it got stuck.
The cub became spooked when approached and went up a tree, but got wedged about 40 feet up. The animal was tranquillised and brought down safely, and firefighters cut the jar off its head.
