A special bond between a polar bear and a man is not. SOURCE:YOUTUBE - ANIMAL PLANET
After all, male polar bears are 1,500 pounds when full-grown, while female polar bears weigh in at about 1,000 pounds. These are not exactly the type of animals you can keep in your backyard. 

These statistics are partly why the close relationship between polar bear Agee and Mark Dumas is unique and rarely seen between wild animals and humans. Their bond began 18 years ago. Dumas is an animal trainer for films, and he was tasked to look for a polar bear for a movie. He heard about an eight-week-old polar bear being hand-reared at a zoo. 

The cub’s mom was an older bear who had given birth to 10 cubs before her and could no longer care for this cub properly. This cub is Agee. Dumas took over caring for Agee and successfully trained her for the movie. No one expected the close bond Dumas and Agee would form with each other. 

“It’s my job, and it’s what I had to do, and then as I’m doing it, I became very, very attached to her,” Dumas told Animal Planet. Dumas and Agee have an extraordinary bond; he is the only person in the world who has this type of relationship with a polar bear. “I love her a lot. I can’t say she loves me, but she really is bonded to me,” he shared. Dumas’s wife, Dawn also interviewed by Animal Planet, quickly said that Agee loves him too. 

Agee and Dumas have a wonderful relationship that he said he would never change for anything. They also shared that Agee can get aggressive when people begin to take Dumas’s attention away from Agee. However, Dawn said that the polar bear doesn’t mind her because she is used to Dawn’s voice. Today, Dumas is still Agee’s primary guardian, provider, and playmate. During the interview, Agee and Dumas showed off their relationship. It is obvious how close they are to each other and how much they care for one another. Dumas said that he has never felt in danger around Agee. 

“Agee sees him as her mother and father together, really. And companion.” Dawn said, talking about her husband’s special bond with Agee. When Dumas and Agee are together, Agee makes a sound almost like a cat purring. Dawn said that it’s because Agee is super content when she’s with Dumas. 

You’ll hear her purring in the video, and it almost sounds like a soft engine running. While some people might question why a fully-grown polar bear is not out in the wild, one thing is for sure – Dumas and Agee have an unbreakable bond. Dumas loved Agee, and as much as animals can love humans, Agee loves him back. After all, he raised and cared for her since she was a cub. 

And this makes them part of each other’s family, with a special bond that no one can break.

Signs of malnutrition were obvious as she weighed no more than 30 pounds, which should be the weight of a three months old cub, but she was almost nine. Really concerned about Aasha’s extremely poor condition, Vicky tried to find out what happened to her. “I asked how could a 9-month-old tiger be that small,” she told The Dodo. 

It turned out that the poor tiger cub was part of a traveling circus. And because she was kept in a cage with a larger animal, she wasn’t allowed to eat. More than that, she got a skin infection called ringworm, but the lack of proper care only made the things even worst. So Vicky decided to take Aasha away and to take care of her. 

Therefore, she was taken to an isolated enclosure at In-Sync Exotics, the Dodo reported. “Aasha’s bald spots covered almost her entire body and her skin was dry [with] cracked, darken areas and bleeding,” Vicky said. 

“Every day, twice a day, I would go in and give Aasha medications and spend time with her. I knew I was going to have to handle her in order to get her well.” And after only a few weeks of proper treatment, the things never looked better for the wild kitten. “After eight weeks of treatments you could see little bits of fuzz growing back to [what once] bald spots,” the kind-hearted Vicky said. However, it took almost eight months until Aasha made an incredible recovery. 

“Within eight months she looked like a real tiger, and it was time to see how she would react to other tigers,” Vicky also said. And right now she’s unrecognizable!

They are commonly seen across the state, but rarely on the median of a busy highway. Idaho State Police (ISP) received multiple calls from concerned commuters on I-84 in Nampa about a Great Horned Owl trapped in plastic.

  Dispatchers called wildlife rescue, Animals in Distress, for help and sent Sgt. Brandalyn Crapo to the scene. 

“Traffic is very heavy on that stretch of freeway and the owl had reportedly been there for some time,” posted ISP. When Sgt. Crapo arrived, she spotted the owl near the median and used her patrol car as a block for oncoming traffic. 

Once the owl was out of harm’s way, she waited for a volunteer with the wildlife rescue to arrive. Within minutes, the volunteer arrived and together they freed the owl.

  They gave her a quick once-over to make sure she wasn’t injured before setting her free. But before she took flight, Sgt. Crapo had her photo taken with the rescued owl.

  The volunteer then took the owl away from the busy road and let her go. ISP thanked the community for alerting them to the distressed owl and Animals in Distress for their help. 

“Not all who need help on our roadways drive cars. The people of ISP are happy to help all who need assistance to get home safely,” wrote the police department.

It was said that the mother moose was previously with the calf, but because she was able to swim, she was able to escape the lake and go. 

It was unclear whether the mother fled to save herself or went to get help. Fortunately, some people were passing nearby on a boat and assisted in pulling the stuck newborn moose out of the water. 

They managed to lift the moose from the rocks that were pretty far off from any land. The moose appeared to be frightened, especially after it seemed to be very worn out from desperately holding onto the rocks. When they got to land, the two men put the young moose down so they it could go and rejoin its family. 

The newborn moose, though, was presumably still frightened and wished to remain with the two guys for a little while longer. After one of the men placed the moose down, the newborn tried to follow him back into the water, assuming it felt safer with the men. He was confident that once the young moose made it ashore, it would be reunited with its parents.
