'Franklin' the bear commemorative t-shirts
T-shirts commemorating ‘Franklin’ the bear will benefit the Humane Rescue Alliance!
WASHINGTON - The Humane Rescue Alliance is selling ‘Franklin The Bear’ t-shirts to commemorate the fuzzy black bear that stole everyone's attention after it was spotted sleeping in a tree. All proceeds will go towards benefiting the Alliance.
A black bear was spotted sleeping in a tree Friday morning in the 1300 block of Franklin Street in the northeast D.C. neighborhood of Brookland.
Animal Control Officers safely tranquilized the bear and transported him to a wooded area in Maryland where he was safely released later that same day.
