Angola Prison otherwise known as the farm in a rural part of Louisiana has a new guard that works for free. It seems last week a 400+ lb black bear was observed by a prisoner as it crossed a road inside the prison last Friday. Louisiana Wildlife does not believe that this bear nor any of the other bears on the grounds of the prison pose any risk to the people at the prison
The Warden seems to see it as a benefit;
“I love that bear being right where it is,” Warden Burl Cain said Monday. “I tell you what, none of our inmates are going to try to get out after dark and wander around when they might run into a big old bear. It’s like having another guard at no cost to the taxpayer.”
