Black Bear yearling #17-1559 update

Earlier this week, Dr. Ernesto was able to set up a makeshift oxygen chamber for Black Bear yearling #17-1559, to assist with the bear's labored breathing. The bear has been a challenging patient to care for; the bear is large enough that the veterinary team needs to sedate the bear for any hands-on treatments, but injured enough that a number of regular treatments are needed.
