Check out this amazing video of three bear cubs that were trapped in a dumpster.
"She was just talking to them,” said Shirley Schenk. “You could tell, it was just ‘I know, I want to get you out but I don't know how to get you out," she said.
Schenk’s motherly instincts kicked in moments later.
The video went viral when her daughter caught it tape.
Schenk dropped a ladder into the dumpster for the cubs to have a way out of the dumpster.
Watch the video link to hear from the woman, the heroine, at the center of it all.
