KALISPELL, Mont. — State wildlife officials have euthanized a female grizzly bear suspected of breaking into three camp trailers east of Fortine and showing other food conditioned behavior in previous years.
Fish, Wildlife and Parks grizzly bear management specialist Tim Manley says the bear was captured on July 29 in a culvert trap near one of the unoccupied trailers that had been broken into the night before.
The bear that entered the trailers suffered a cut and the captured bear had a cut on the left front foot pad.
