A dangerous bear that had sown
panic by killing livestock since last July was captured in
northern Italy on Tuesday night, rangers said Wednesday.
The bear, dubbed M49, was taken into captivity on the
mountains above Tione in Trentino.
The animal, which escaped in July 2019 after a first capture,
is in good condition, the provincial government said.
Caught in a pipe trap, it was then transported under
veterinary control and awake.
It has been taken to a wildlife park at Casteller.
