The black bear captured in Green River last week was transported to Idaho to for care and eventual re-introduction into the wild.
The black bear cub discovered and immobilized in town last week arrived safely in Idaho Friday.
Lucy Diggins-Wold, Wyoming Game and Fish Green River Information and Education Specialist, said it took the bear 15 minutes to come out of the truck once it arrived at the certified black-bear rehabilitation center in Idaho.
Although he acted skeptical at first, he immediately started roaming around his new outside enclosure.
This Idaho center has been doing black-bear rehabilitation since 1989 and has rehabilitated black bears from Wyoming in the past, a Game and Fish press release stated.
