3 Wyoming grizzly bears relocated after killing livestock

JACKSON, Wyo. – Wyoming wildlife managers have caught and relocated three yearling grizzly bears that were killing livestock.

The state Game and Fish Department says the bears were captured north of Pinedale and relocated on Wednesday to a remote area in the Bridger-Teton National Forest east of Moran Junction.

The release site is located in currently occupied grizzly bear habitat.

Earlier this week, wildlife managers relocated another grizzly bear from the Pinedale area because of cattle losses.
