A three-year-old boy had a special friend keep him safe while spending two days lost in the North Carolina woods.
Casey Hathaway told his family that he hung out with a bear after going missing from his grandmother’s home.
The friendly bear supposedly kept a watchful eye on Hathaway as he spent two days in freezing conditions.
Emergency services had to wade through waist high water to find the boy after a few days of hard rain.
Hathaway amazingly escaped with only a few scrapes and only wanted some water and his mother.
