COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — Colorado Parks and Wildlife officers relocated a young black bear after he was seen roaming a Colorado Springs neighborhood.
“Wildlife Officers responded to the Barnes and Austin Bluffs area of Colorado Springs Thursday where a 125 pound male yearling black bear was [wandering] the area,” the agency said in a post on X. “Officers immobilized the bear and placed it in a wildlife trailer. The bear was given a ‘wake up’ drug and then relocated and released several hours south into better bear habitat. Can you see the bear in the third photo above?”
