Turkey: Little bear ate honey with hallucinogenic substances – The animal stumbled and made unusual sounds

A disoriented brown bear, believed to be intoxicated after consuming a large amount of hallucinogenic honey (mad honey), was rescued today in the northwestern province of Duzze Turkey.

In images that have seen the light of day, the bear stumbling, making unusual noises and lying on her stomach in the back of a truck after people they rescued the visibly weakened animal from the forest.

Mad honey, or “deli bal” in Turkish, is one type of honey from rhododendron that may have hallucinogenic effects.

The bear was taken to a veterinarian, where it received treatment and will likely be released back into the wild in the coming days, local authorities said, adding that the animal is in good condition.

The Ministry of Agriculture invited Turks on Twitter to suggest a name for the bear.
