Local animal advocate Laurie Hood is traveling to that meeting to make a last-ditch plea to stop the hunt. She's the founder of Alaqua Animal Refuge, and a former vice-chair of the Florida Wildlife Federation. Black bears were once a threatened species in Florida.

ESCAMBIA COUNTY, FLA. -- Around 400,000 times a year, someone in the US goes into cardiac arrest. Most of the time, it doesn't happen in a hospital. WEAR News went to see the critical training some Escambia County students got on Wednesday, and what it can mean for all of us. For those who remember, the song is called "Stayin' Alive." It has the perfect beat for lifesaving chest compressions, and it's the perfect theme for the CPR training at West Florida High School.

OKALOOSA COUNTY, Fla. -- A combat wounded Air Force veteran was gifted a mortgage-free home Wednesday in Okaloosa County. It's more than a brand new house. It's a brand new beginning. Staff Sergeant Justin Day was an Air Force combat controller, working with elite special operations teams. "They work in the war zone, and things happen sometimes," Crestview Mayor JD Whitten said. "Horrible things happened to Sergeant Day."He was severely injured in Afghanistan in 2018.
