If you saw a ferocious bear standing in the middle of the road and you had places to go, what would you do? One brave police officer faced this dilemma. However, he was soon forced to act quickly. State Trooper Thomas Owens needed to make sure that all the drivers who were stuck in traffic were safe from the claws of a fierce bear in the middle of the road. Eventually, though, he realized why the beast wouldn’t move…

Just a few years ago, Thomas Owens never thought he would’ve had to deal with a gigantic bear in the middle of a busy road. Back when he was a senior at high school, many of his friends were moving onto college, where they would eventually become doctors, lawyers, and teachers. As for him, he was planning on becoming a state trooper. Fast forward a few years, and Thomas is now part of the New Hampshire State Police.

After establishing himself as a respected member of the New Hampshire State Police, the day eventually came when Thomas would have to confront the fierce bear. One day, an anonymous source reported to the police force that a bear was spotted on a road close to Bretton Woods Ski Resort. In collaboration with Carroll police, Thomas drove down to the reported location. One thing’s for sure, this isn’t the first time that a bear has caused problems here…

Bretton Woods is a majestic part of the world. Spanning over 700 acres of land, this is a beautiful area that not only attracts skiers but is home to a wide variety of wildlife. With over 200 species of bird living in this region, as well as many sightings of bears, it should come as no surprise that these woods are well protected. Surely enough, Thomas was about to see something the likes of which he has never seen before…

As he drove towards the location where the bear reportedly stood, Thomas couldn’t believe how many cars were waiting in traffic. The long line of cars was stretching for miles. Thankfully, as a state trooper, he was able to pass through to see what all the fuss was about. By the time he arrived at the scene, the entire space had been blocked off. Even when he was many yards away from the bear, he could see that she posed a potential threat…

Obviously, police treat any case where there is a bear involved very seriously. There is no denying that bears can be extremely dangerous if one gets too close to them. The black bear was huge and if she was disturbed, there was a good chance that she could act violently. As a state trooper, Thomas had undergone training in how to deal with dangerous creatures, including bears. However, there was one thing he needed to do before attending to the bear…

After briefly assessing the situation from a distance, Thomas began to shout to the driver in front to turn around, head back the other way and to pass the message down the long line of traffic. The police also put up large steel sheets in order to ensure a safe blockade between the drivers and the bear. While the drivers were now fairly safe and began to go the other way, Thomas was still there, waiting to confront the bear…

As Thomas tried to get closer to the bear, he noticed something strange about her. For some reason, she was pacing back and forth from one side of the road to the other. It was something he’s never seen before. Usually, a bear might sit still in similar cases, but this was a unique situation. Thomas couldn’t quite put his finger on why the bear was moving in such a peculiar way. Why not just move off the road?

Now, there were no cars in sight and Thomas was still a fair amount of distance away from the bear. At this point, he seized the opportunity to get even closer to the bear who was still pacing back and forth. Even though Thomas got so close, the bear was far too preoccupied to even notice him. The state trooper wondered what could be possibly troubling the bear. Soon enough though, Thomas understood why the bear was behaving so strangely…

It was at this stage that Thomas finally understood the reason behind the bear’s irrational behavior. She had not one, not two, but three cubs! They were all following her as she went from one side of the road to the other, and back again. It was clear that despite their small stature, the three cubs were very strong and could keep up with their humongous mother. However, the next thing that Thomas saw truly explained the mother’s behavior…

While it’s surprisingly rare for a mother bear to have three cubs at once, Thomas was amazed to see that a fourth one was also at the scene. However, the little one wasn’t moving, which immediately explained why the mother and her other cubs were pacing back and forth. While they were determined to move along, the mother kept noticing that the fourth cub wasn’t getting up. It was at this stage that Thomas witnessed something remarkable…

Thomas was lost for words when he saw the mother’s maternal instinct creep in for her fourth cub. As she walked up to the motionless bear cub, she lowered her head and nudged him with her nose. In fact, she had been constantly doing this every time she paced from one side of the road to the other. However, the cub still didn’t move. Thomas was in for another big shock when the mother bear threw another curveball his way…

It was clear that the mother bear assumed that her cub was a lost cause, due to his lack of movement. Thomas knew that something wasn’t right but simply had to watch the moment play out. After a few minutes of pacing and nudging, the mother ultimately decided to move on with her other cubs and return to the woods. Naturally, Thomas was upset with what happened. However, from where he could see, the cub still looked very much alive…

Now that the coast was clear, Thomas knew that he needed to act quickly. He rushed over to the abandoned cub to check his condition. Knowing all too well that the mother bear could return and attack him, he quickly inspected the cub. There it lay, with its eyes closed and unable to move. Then, Thomas couldn’t believe his eyes when the cub finally managed to get up on all fours. Had he finally recovered?

Despite getting up and appearing to have recovered, the bear cub lost balance once again and collapsed to the ground. It was clear to Thomas that the cub was sick and needed immediate medical attention. So he picked the poor little thing in his arms and rushed him back to his car. He drove the cub to the New Hampshire Fish and Game Center. However, it wouldn’t take long before Thomas picked up the cub again and went somewhere else…

Thomas and the officers at the New Hampshire Fish and Game Center knew that the little cub needed proper medical attention. As a result, they decided to transport him to a rehab center in Lyme, New Hampshire, instead. As soon as he arrived at the center, a team of vets and nurses took the bear cub off his hands and attended to him. Despite working on the cub all night long, they had some updates that Thomas didn’t want to hear…

It was clear that the cub’s chances of survival were hanging on a thread. While the vets and nurses were taking care of the cub, Thomas knew that it surely would have perished had the authorities not arrived at the scene in time. Moreover, had the mother stayed with the sick cub, she could’ve put the rest of her cubs in danger too. Then, Thomas learned something mindblowing about the mother bear that had happened that day…

As Thomas’s story became the talk of the town, officials eventually broke the news to him that the mother bear who he had encountered earlier that day actually had five cubs with her at the beginning. This meant that on the same day, she had lost not one, but two of her litter. Whether she lost the other one or abandoned it was unclear. At any rate, Thomas knew exactly what he needed to do next…

Determined to bring this broken family back together, Thomas organized a meeting with a team of state troopers and planned a search. While the fourth cub was still in medical care, Thomas wouldn’t rest until he found the fifth one. They explored the woods with a group of K9 units, who would surely be able to sniff out any form of life. After many long hours of searching, Thomas’s efforts were brought to a surprising conclusion…

Amazingly, when everything was said and done, Thomas and the Carroll police managed to locate the fifth cub’s whereabouts! It would come to pass that the cub was actually located close to where his mother had been pacing back and forth just a couple of days beforehand. Needless to say, Thomas was absolutely delighted to find the little one. It wouldn’t take long before the state trooper received even more good news that would bring this story to a close…

Thankfully, after a couple of days of intensive care, both the fourth and fifth bear cub made a full recovery and the nurses were able to bottle feed them in peace. However, both Thomas and the vets knew that they couldn’t hang onto the cubs forever. While both of them appearing to be very stressed when first found, they were now happy and healthy now. Yet Thomas knew that he needed to do one more thing for the adorable cubs…

Now that the cubs are healthy and happy, Thomas and the rehab center are determined to reunite them with the mother, helping to make this family complete once again. However, they will need to remain at the center in order to reach full strength. Only then will the center release the two bears back into the wild. While the reunion hasn’t happened just yet, Thomas was in store for some good news in light of his heroic adventure…

Not only did the New Hampshire State Police praise Thomas for his vigilance in caring for the bear cub, but many people on social media also had great things to say about Thomas, who had gone above and beyond to make sure that nobody, no matter how big, small or furry, would be left behind. One thing is for sure, the bears of Carroll, New Hampshire can count on Thomas to keep a watchful, loving eye over them.

Life has a funny way of taking the most unexpected turns. And, as you will see in this story, things are not always as they seem. This is the story of Ben and his beloved mare, Felicia – the horse that refused to give birth for a very unique reason. When the vet saw what was happening when he gave the horse an ultrasound, everyone was left shocked and the vet called the authorities. Find out what he found and why the horse refused to give birth as we explore this amazing tale.

Horse owners and equine lovers will be the first to tell you about the unique privilege they have of taking care of a horse. And for farmer Ben, the bond he shared with his favorite mare, Felicia, was truly remarkable.

Animal lovers are quick to tell you just what it is that makes their beloved animal so special, and we can only imagine what Ben would have to say about his beloved mare as he set off to find the perfect stallion to make her a mother.

It would come as no surprise that Ben would feel immense joy and excitement when Felicia was expecting a foal. Little did he know that this journey into equine motherhood would take an unforeseen turn, leading to a situation so shocking that it would involve the intervention of the authorities.

What was supposed to be a joyous time quickly turned into a rather sinister and surprising experience that Ben himself wouldn’t have been able to predict even if he had tried. After all, his focus was on Felicia and her impending due date.

As time drew closer for Felicia to give birth, Ben couldn’t help but feel that something was amiss. With the long wait for the birth fraught with much uncertainty, Ben turned to the professionals for help with his beloved mare.

Ben called a veterinarian, arranging for him to arrive on a motorcycle in order to skip the traffic. His attention was clearly on the distressed mare, Ben was eager to get the veterinarian to his home as quickly as possible.

A visit from the veterinarian, armed with his ultrasound machine, soon confirmed that Felicia’s pregnancy was anything but ordinary as what Ben and the vet witnessed on the screen left them shocked and wondering just what was happening inside the mare.

Finding something that shouldn’t have been there, the veterinarian had a legal obligation to make the heartbreaking decision to call the authorities, placing Ben under scrutiny for what had been discovered in Felicia’s belly along with her unborn foal.

The authorities were soon called in, setting in motion a chain of events that would lead to a series of unexpected and shocking revelations and a life-altering experience for Ben that would shake him to his very core and leave him in a state of bewilderment.

Knowing he had done nothing wrong, he couldn’t imagine what would happen next and just why the authorities found the contents of Felicia’s belly so important that they’d begin questioning him almost immediately.

Ben, understandably, had more than a few questions in his mind. Was something wrong with his beloved Felicia? Did he unknowingly do something wrong? What was happening inside of Felicia that would warrant the authorities to be called in?

With more questions than answers, Ben had no choice but to step away from Felicia and let the veterinarian do his work. He had to look helplessly on from the sidelines, which was so challenging. His heart was shattered, and he found it hard to focus on what was happening around him.

It wasn’t long after the phone call that law enforcement officers arrived on the scene. And while Ben tried his utmost to remain calm, the officers’ demeanor was clear to see – they were more than just a little concerned about the call that they had received.

Ben couldn’t understand why the authorities were called. What had gone so wrong with the pregnancy that it would warrant a call to the authorities? And just what had the vet spotted that would lead to this rather rash decision?

Felicia, by now, was starting to get distressed, and we don’t blame her. We, too, would be fearful if we were suddenly surrounded by the authorities. The veterinarian, in his efforts to calm the poor mare, did what he knew best and sedated her. And then the questions began.

A distressed mare is difficult at best. Add in pregnancy, and you have a potential recipe for disaster that could quickly turn into a dangerous situation for both the mare and her unborn foal, and this veterinarian wasn’t taking any chances.

Before we carry on with this story, it’s necessary to go back in time to before any of this happened and learn a bit more about Ben and his favorite horse, Felicia. The ideal mare, Felicia, was the epitome of health, making her the ideal candidate for motherhood.

It’s not uncommon for horses to have personalities of their own, and when it came to personality, Felicia was as gentle and loving as they come – a rare delight for lucky Ben, who adored his beautiful, healthy mare and doted on her.

Not only was she beautiful, but she was graceful, too, capturing Ben’s eye from the very first moment he saw her. Once she was in his possession, Ben would visit the stable frequently, only cementing the bond he shared with the beautiful creature.

Felicia would want for nothing, with Ben regularly making changes to her stable to ensure that she was as comfortable and happy as could be. There was nothing that Ben wouldn’t do for his beloved Felicia, giving her the life she so deserved.

When the time came to find a stallion for Felicia, Ben found the process to be lengthy and arduous. He had high standards for his mare’s mate, and he abandoned his search more than once as no stallion was good enough for his Felicia.

A good stallion is hard to find. Ben needed to consider breeding, temperament, and pedigree when it came to choosing the right stallion that would inevitably father Felicia’s foal – a difficult task considering how much he loved his horse.

Finally, after a long and seemingly endless search, Ben found the ideal stallion for his beloved Felicia. A meeting was arranged between the horses, and the rest, as they say, is history. At least, that’s what Ben thought as Felicia’s pregnancy was confirmed a short while later.

This was just the start of the process for Felicia, as she was pregnant for no less than 330 days, or just short of 11 months., which is a bit longer than the average human pregnancy. Ben wasn’t worried, he knew Felicia’s due date would come around soon enough.

The wait for any baby, be it human or equine, is a joyful and exciting time, and Ben was happy when the veterinarian confirmed that both Felicia and the foal were in very good health and that there were no issues detected.

Ben, like many other horse lovers, had her pregnancy confirmed via an ultrasound, with the veterinarian paying close attention to the foal’s development and looking out for any abnormalities.

As time passed, Ben couldn’t shake the feeling that things were not as they should be. The bond between Ben and Felicia was so profound that he could detect even the slightest changes in her behavior and mood, and it was only a few months into her pregnancy that her behavior raised concerns.

While slight changes in behavior are normal, Ben did what any good horse owner would do and took note of even the slightest changes in behavior and mood. Then again, who could blame a mare for getting a little cranky while carrying a foal?

She soon started exhibiting lethargy, refused to leave her stable, and almost stopped eating altogether. Concerned for Felicia and her foal’s well-being, Ben once again reached out to the vet for guidance. Luckily, that’s just what he got from his veterinarian!

This behavior was out of the ordinary for Felicia, and Ben did the right thing in reaching out to his veterinarian for advice and guidance on what to do and what he should look out for to ensure that Felicia was okay.

The veterinarian assured Ben that Felicia’s changes in mood and behavior were nothing to be concerned about and that they were considered a normal part of the process. This news immediately put Ben at ease, and he was once again focused on ensuring that Felicia was well taken care of.

He thanked the veterinarian for his assistance, making notes about the things he should look out for, and busied himself with giving Felicia the extra attention and love she would need to get her through the last few months of her pregnancy.

As Felicia’s pregnancy progressed, Ben continued his preparations for the impending birth. He made adjustment after adjustment to Felicia’s stable, ensuring a comfortable environment for both mare and foal. Anticipation built as Felicia’s belly swelled with the growing life inside her.

Mares, too, suffer from the usual aches and pains that human women do, making Felicia grumpy, a bit moody, and tired. And thanks to Ben’s changes to her stable, she could enjoy the rest of her pregnancy in complete comfort.

Finally, the moment Ben had been waiting for arrived. He could at last see the signs that Felicia was in labor and hurriedly readied her stable for her delivery. Armed with a mobile phone for emergencies, he waited anxiously for the birth, expecting it to unfold naturally and without a hitch.

Ben paid close attention to the signs he had come to learn about to know that his beloved Felicia was nearing the end of her pregnancy. And when the time finally came, he knew that he wanted to be right by her side.

As time passed, however, it became apparent to Ben that something was wrong. He could see that Felicia was in distress and that she was experiencing difficulty in labor. Ben had no choice but to call the vet, unaware of what was to come from this one phone call.

Ben called the veterinarian, giving him all the details of Felicia’s condition and noting that something seemed off. While this was a great idea to ensure Felicia’s safety, it would be the start of a nightmare for Ben.

The veterinarian instructed Ben to make Felicia as comfortable as he could, assuring Ben that he was on his way. Once there, the veterinarian made the call to the authorities, which started a series of events that no one thought possible.

Once the veterinarian arrived on the back of a neighbor’s motorcycle, he jumped into action to take care of the pregnant mare, sedating her so that he could do a proper inspection to determine what was wrong.

With Felicia now sedated, the vet once again did an ultrasound, carefully searching the pregnant mare’s belly for clues. The more he looked, the more he was certain of his revelation – Felicia’s long-awaited pregnancy was far from normal.

Something was amiss. What exactly that was would soon be determined, and it was something that no one had expected to see – especially in the belly of a pregnant mare. As he zoomed in on Felicia’s belly, the doctor was taken aback.

The veterinarian was quick to point out a bulge on the ultrasound – one that shouldn’t have been there – causing him to grow more concerned that something was very, very wrong with Felicia and her soon-to-be foal.

What could be causing this bulge? And how could Ben have missed this while looking after Felicia so lovingly the past few months while she carried her precious foal? Was this his fault? And would this be the end of Felicia?

A closer examination of Felicia’s belly revealed an abnormality. Ben noticed an odd bulge on the ultrasound – a protrusion that didn’t fit the expectations of a typical pregnancy. Still, Ben had no idea what this meant and why the authorities needed to be there.

Now, looking at a rather massive bulge in Felicia’s stomach, Ben and the vet were more than concerned about what they saw. And while Ben wanted nothing more than to be with Felicia, he had questions to answer.

While the veterinarian prepared Felicia for emergency surgery, the authorities cornered Ben. They asked him a few rather strange questions that all but shocked Ben. From details of the stallion to his involvement with the initial breeding, the authorities were eager to know every detail.

Why would they ask him such a question? Just what was it in Felicia’s belly that would call into question his ownership of his beloved horse? And would he lose her, or the foal that was about to be born?

With the authorities questioning Ben, the veterinarian pushed on with his surgery, delivering a healthy foal to Felicia. But what came next would shock not only him but Ben and the authorities, too, as he pulled something out of the mare’s stomach that shouldn’t have been there.

Felicia’s surgery was over almost as soon as it had started. With a new foal now in the world, the authorities were desperate to solve the mystery of the bulge and determine who was to blame for it.

Inside Felicia’s now open belly was a microchip. This discovery would lead to a few more questions by the authorities for Ben. Thankfully for him, however, the discovery of the microchip meant that he was off the hook. Unfortunately, many questions surrounding how it got there still remained.

Who would place a microchip in the mare? And what exactly was it for? The authorities seemed to know what they were looking at – as if they had seen it before. Their line of questioning quickly changed course, and they presented Ben with something new.

It was then that the authorities produced a series of mugshots, asking Ben to look at each one carefully to determine if he recognized any of the people’s photographs placed before him. It wasn’t long until one face stood out from among the rest.

Could this be the man responsible for the issue at hand? And just where did Ben remember him from? With his mind still on Felicia and her newborn foal, Ben racked his brain for answers to the authorities’ questions.

As Ben looked more closely at the face before him, he remembered the man staring back at him. It was none other than the owner of the stallion that would ultimately impregnate Felicia, making him the father of her foal.

How dare this man hurt his beloved mare and think that he could get away with it?! And, more seriously, how could Ben have been so blind to the man’s over-eagerness to impregnate Felicia with his stallion? Had he caused this?

The man in the photos had a history of performing botched procedures when impregnating mares. While the authorities had made previous attempts to apprehend him, they were unable to secure enough evidence to hold him – that is, until this incident.

This was just the evidence they needed to finally make a case against this horrible man and possibly put him away for a very long time. Ben was elated that he was cleared of any wrongdoing. Now, he could once again focus all his attention on his mare and her new baby.

The authorities were able to uncover the man’s awful plan. He would impregnate the horse, implant a microchip, and then claim that the mare was, in fact, his. This would make the foal his property, too. Thankfully for Ben, the plan would unravel, and it was determined that Felicia was Ben’s property.

Ben would be able to keep the foal and its mother safe and sound in his stables while the authorities built their case against the perpetrator. Ben thanked the authorities for their assistance, and the veterinarian expressed his gratitude, too.

This was just the evidence that the authorities needed to nab this evil man and put an end to his cruel spree. Doing so meant saving many more unassuming mares and their owners from the horrors of his botched procedures.

Who knows how many mares and their foals would have suffered in the future were it not for Ben and his unending love for Felicia? It just goes to show that anything is possible when you take the time to know and love your animals.

Felicia went on to make a full recovery, and her foal was born healthy and strong. Ben, only too happy and relieved that the nightmare is over, continues doting on his beloved mare and her newborn foal, lavishing them with the love they deserve.

Ben knew he’d made the right decision that day and called the best person to help him determine what was wrong with his mare. While it was a stressful day, only good things came of it.

The authorities went on to locate and apprehend the man responsible for this terrible ordeal. The foal was deemed the legal property of Ben. Luckily, he was under no obligation to surrender it to the authorities.

While we don’t know what came of this story, we do know that the perpetrator paid for his crimes. We just hope that it was for a very long time and that he learned a very hard lesson about hurting animals for his own personal gain.

This tale truly serves as a testament to the unique and unbreakable bond between horse and man. Were it not for Ben’s love and attention, who knows what might have happened? More than that, who knows if Felicia would have delivered her foal safely?

It took a lot of love from Ben – and the expertise of the veterinarian – to know that something was amiss. The hard work and dedication of the authorities allowed them to bring down the evil man. And, boy, did they do just that!

With the evil man now locked up, Ben could focus on giving Felicia and her new foal the life they deserved, free from harm. But we can bet he didn’t dare think of finding another stallion to impregnate his beloved mare again.

This wacky tale shows just how deep the bond between a horse owner and their mare can go. Through the ups and downs, Ben’s love for Felicia ensured a feel-good ending. Her miraculous foal’s arrival brought joy, and justice was served!
