They typically colar the bears that have been relocated. It may have been a bear trapped in a residential area and taken up to the woods. If it returns to the area they put it down.
Since it is on public land and I know they have had a fairly aggressive collaring program, I doubt he was a problem bear. It probably has more to do with timber damage and the Black Bear Project.
AHHH !!! Alien Bear!!
