A brown bear has been rescued after it was found struggling for days with a large plastic barrel stuck in its head, The Mirror reports .
The starving male was found thrashing about on the rocks, wriggling from side to side. Local Borja Martínez encountered the bear while taking a morning walk on September 13.
He immediately notified the Brown Bear Foundation (FOP). The bear was found near Anllares del Sil, northwest of Madrid, Spain.
Borja told local media: "The animal was disoriented."
Vets arrived on the scene and sedated the bear, putting it to sleep for 12 minutes.
