    The same thing happened with a 3 year old cow moose in Calgary yesterday.

    Tranquilizer darts don't have a huge range - you want to get close enough to have the dart stick, and not have it fall short and maybe scare the poor thing even more.

    I'll post more in another thread - just wanted to point out that sadly, tranquilizing is not always possible, and not as easy as it may sometimes sound.

    RIP bear.

    It took the idiots 6 days of trying?! Were they drunk? I'd have no faith in them if my life were on the line. And the bear's head was stuck, I'm sure they could have gotten makeshift walls of some sort and slowly brought them close enough together to have the bear contained.

    Ditto.

    Six days and they couldn't accomplish anything?! What a bunch of useless people they are.
