An injured bear brought to an Indian zoo for treatment escaped from its cage and was recaptured after wandering into a home under construction in a nearby neighborhood.
Forest department officials said the bear has been captured in Sawai Madhopur and was taken to the Nahargarh Biological Park to be treated for an unspecified injury on Saturday.
The bear escaped from its cage at the zoo on Sunday and headed to a nearby neighborhood in Jaisinghpura.
Officials said the bear was safely tranquilized after taking shelter in an under-construction house.
The bear was returned to the zoo to undergo veterinary treatment.
