“Sufficiently” Staffed VA Hospital Takes Entire Day to Find Live Bear

May 18th, 2007 (8:26 am) by You Served Editorial Staff-

State wildlife officials were summoned to a VA Hospital in Tennessee this morning to trap a live black bear who had been sleeping on the grounds for the past day.  Apparently no one had noticed the roughly 250 pound animal sleeping in a tree throughout yesterday.

An ironic turn of events in the wake of all the negative press given VA hospitals and their lack of resources lately.  The big fella was baited with doughnuts and sardines (a tasty combination!) before being removed from the premises.
