A life-saving mission is underway to save a Tahoe bear four days after he was found on the brink of death.
The veterinary staff at the Oakland Zoo is treating Nixon, an 8-month-old cub, that was found wandering outside a store gravely ill.
The cub is battling a host of health issues including a fungal infection, pneumonia, a fractured front limb and a dislocated wrist. And that is just the beginning.Dr. Sadler and his team of veterinarians at the Oakland Zoo have been documenting Nixon's journey as they try to nurse him back to health.
"She left her door open to go kind of check on him and he felt that heat, and this little bear just climbed right up into that car," said Ann Bryant, the executive director of the Bear League."It's loss of a mother too early, not able to find forage, not able to eat or nurse, they get compromised. Their immune system breaks down and then they're very vulnerable," Bryant said.
"Boy, what a fighter, you know? You really got to give him credit for doing what he needed to do to survive," Bryant said.
