The bear was thrown over an overpass onto the Custis Trail in Arlington, authorities said.
At first, Sonia Nayar was struck by the smell. Then, the flies, as her cavapoo Rocky ran toward a plastic bag near the walking trail by her home.It didn’t look like any of the animals she was used to seeing — deer, dogs — and thought it could be a bear, asking herself: “But why would a bear be in a bag?”at about 4:30 p.m. on Friday, May 31, that would become the talk of the town.
That’s where Nayar and officials found it with “a significant amount of decomposition happening,” Jones said.The Animal Welfare League of Arlington is working with the Virginia Department of Wildlife Resources “to determine if charges will be filed for this egregious behavior,” Jones said.
This was the first dead bear Jones had encountered in her eight years of working at the Animal Welfare League of Arlington. The discovery had seemed off to Nayar on Friday, too. She called authorities before she even got home.
