As the final two bears of 2015 were being darted and prepped for release on April 20, Dr. Dave was able to successfully dart Black Bear yearling #16-0054 (“Black Tag”). The yearling was very cautious but stayed on the ground long enough for Dr. Dave to dart her. Dr. Dave had to follow up twice with additional injections to ensure the bear was fully asleep and safe enough to handle for an examination.
