Wildlife officials found the female cub wet and cold in a retention pond at an apartment complex in Asheville, North Carolina, in April. A witness had called authorities after seeing a group of people yanking two struggling cubs out of a nearby tree in attempt to take photos with them.

The female black bear cub pulled from a tree for a selfie photo in North Carolina has returned to the wild, months after spending time in rehab care.

Two sets of rehabilitated bear cubs, five in total, were released into two different locations outside of Pagosa Springs, Colorado, on Wednesday, wildlife officials said. Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) said the bears were orphaned this summer in mid-July near Durango, Colorado.
