Two park rangers near the town of Chorzow in southern Poland set out to tranquilize a bear which had wandered too close to the town. The bear had plagued the area for weeks after escaping from a wildlife park in a nearby Ukrainian town. The brown bear even visited the Polish town of Przemysl where the she paid a visit to a grade school. In Przemysl, the bear was tranquilized and brought deep into the forest where authorities hoped it would stay for good. That didn’t happen.
The bear resurfaced in Chorzow where these two park rangers shot it with a tranquilizer. The bear went down and, when one of rangers approached the beast, it woke up and gave chase. A second ranger came to the man’s aid and they were finally able to put the bear down. One guy was kind enough to take photos of the event which really helped out the two guys running for their lives.
The bear’s fate remains undecided authorities would like to put it in a local zoo.

that last picture is awfully close. did they get away?
Looks like they are trying to dart the bear. It has a tag or something around its neck. Probably some research. Like how fast can this bear run!! ;P
It says they were able to put the bear down.
I think these guys were pretty lucky. Now they have the #1 guaranteed most bad-ass story to tell their drinking buddies. How can you top that?
fucking run!!!!
haha wow!! that is truly amazing and those guys are truly lucky. Good thing they got away. Also yeah that last picture looks like the bear was really close. WOW!
The guy with the beard looks like he’s totally unfazed by the pissed of Bear, and just enjoying a winter jog.
“so how was your day honey”
“I don’t want to talk about it. Sammich now”
Don’t have to be faster than the bear, just faster than the other guy
That’s why you have a dart gun… shoot your buddy and get away….
run bitch run!
Awww The Bear just wants to play!! Why else would it visit a school??
Nice pictures, but something gotta be done about all these damn bears. They are getting to point where they are no longer afraid of humans, thats not a good thing.
The bears’ lack of fear isn’t nearly as troubling as the immunity to tranquilizers they’ve developed.
Well, they were here first (38 million years ago) whereas the earliest origins of humans have only been around for 5-7 million years. So if anything, we’re the ones intruding.
Shut the fuck up hippie!
Seriously Brandon, shut the fuck up.
Everyone knows the world is only like 6000 years old. So how can bears be here 1st? Duh!
That guy with the beard must have some moves, looks like he did a little juke move
Maybe this is how NFL runningbacks should be trained?
he does look like running back in those photos…except he’s holding a gun
I thought NFL players do carry guns.
only at the club, NBA genius’ bring em to locker room
I bet they shat bricks!!
Jolly good wager, my boy! I’ll see your excrement bricks and raise you urinated-upon undergarments.
Everyone knows you’re supposed to put a saddle on it, dress it in armor and super-awesome lasers and ride it into battle.
All I want is a little brown bear with friggin laser beams attatched to it’s head! Is that too much to ask?
We do have sea bass. Mutated sea bass. They are…ill-tempered.
Dang!
I wish this had been the two guys who hunted and killed that bear last fall.
Whoever took the photos must have some balls – if it were me, I’d be running too!
They really shouldnt have kept that bear drunk and depressed. Didnt they see the golden compass?
Exactly! Most awesome bear fight-scene evar.
Yer doin it wrong.
Discovery Channel FAIL
That is a very small bear, I’ve wrestled ones bigger than that.
The Park Rangers are lucky, they were not midget size
