A young black bear that visited a northern Idaho middle school whose mascot is a grizzly bear has been captured and will be returned to the wild.

The Coeur d'Alene Press reports (http://bit.ly/1ro9sMj ) that Idaho Fish and Game officials tranquilized the bear after it climbed down from a large tree at about 11:30 a.m. Wednesday.

Wayne Wakkinen of Fish and Game says it's a young bear likely on its own for the first time. He says it was looking for a place to live when it came across Woodland Middle School - home of the Grizzlies - in Coeur d'Alene.

He says the bear is being released in a remote area.

School Resource Officer Tom Sparks says school continued as usual but lunch was held inside.

Lol, how ironic. The bear's like "Hey don't kick me out, I am the freaking mascot!" :P
 
It is very ironic that the bear wound up there. Glad they were able to tranquilize the bear and now be able to release it back into the wild.
 
Yeah he was just a confused pup, needed to be guided back to his home in the wilderness.
