WFTV, Orlando, Florida
A bear wandering around an Orlando neighbourhood died today after it was tasered twice by Orlando police officers. Police said they never intended to kill the bear, but did what they could to keep citizens safe. "We observed the bear appeared to have passed out. A short time later, we determined the animal had passed away." The cause of death will be determined after a necropsy ordered by state Fish and Wildlife.
Surely the taser didn't kill the bear?! According to the manufacturer, the taser doesn't kill. Then it had to be drug-induced excited delirium! Would someone please tell the animals to lay off the cocaine? See here for more reports of taser use on animals.
