That little bear isn't going to learn how to be a real bear living away from people, they learn from the sow at a very young age what and how to eat and how to forage, it's either going to die a long slow death of starvation or more likely find more people to scavenge from.  They need euthanized.

Bearpaw echoes my thoughts as well on Jackelope's photo.  Front on I am 95% certain it is a gorgeous black bear, but I would want to see it's profile to confirm.  It seems those shoulder humps are more pronounced on a black bear when they are standing with their front feet below their back feet.
Dreams are forever on the mind, realization in the hands.

The bear walking towards the trap and the bear in front of the garbage are definitely different bears.

Here’s a front facing photo of the actual 500 pound grizzly bear that’s been breaking into homes.

I agree I think. Weird that the article says it is.
