A wild bear was rescued after spending two nights stuck on a 60ft high block of flats which it climbed looking for food. <br /><br />The Asian black bear cub climbed up the side of the apartment building after being enticed by the smell of food coming from the sixth floor. <br /><br />Terrified residents called the emergency services after noticing the 60kg animal in Nakhon Ratchasima, northern Thailand. <br /><br />Wildlife workers spent the next two days trying to entice the cub into climbing down but it remained laid out on the perilously thin bathroom window ledge. <br /><br />The bear finally climbed back down on Sunday afternoon before running into another condominium. Conservationists finally caught him using a large net and put him in a cage.<br /><br />Department of National Parks officer Patpon Maneoon, who was involved in the rescue, said: ''This was a young bear so he was quite inexperienced. I don't think an older bear would have tried to do this.<br /><br />''The youngster was probably trying to get inside one of the rooms looking for food.''<br /><br />Patpon said that workers from the National Park Rescue Centre, local vets and staff from the Khao Yai National Park helped to bring the bear to safety. <br /><br />They initially used a large crane to reach the animal and try to coax it down to the ground. They even flew a drone close to it hoping that it would be pressured into scaling back down the edge of the building. <br /><br />It eventually made the descent just after lunchtime. It was later released back into the wild.
