Black Bear #16-0304 update

Black Bear yearling #16-0304 continues the slow recovery from emaciation. Dr. Helen has been monitoring the yearling closely, and each day, the bear continues to appear weak, yet alert. On April 20, the bear’s zinger crate was moved to the Center’s Bear Pen; in the afternoon, the staff opened the door of the zinger crate to allow the bear to have full access to Bear Pen #3. The bear was seen slowly walking around and exploring the space.
