Sgt. Ted Jackson with the Department of Fish and Wildlife said the sow had recovered after being tranquilized by wildlife officers shortly before 6 a.m. Monday. Saying she "came out of the drugs real well," Jackson said they were happy to capture the elusive bear that has been running around west Bremerton since Oct. 23.
The approximately 200-pound bear, believed to be the mother of two cubs rescued last Thursday, was tranquilized on a cedar tree on Chester Avenue between Eighth and Ninth streets, Jackson said.
Wildlife officers were alerted by Bremerton police officers around 4:45 a.m. that the bear was near the intersection of National Avenue and Seventh Street. Wildlife officers that responded believed they had the bear "pinned down," but she made a run for it, Jackson said.
The chase ended with the bear climbing the cedar tree closer to downtown. With help from Bremerton police, the wildlife officers used a tranquilizer dart to bring in the bear.
"She looks good and healthy," Jackson said.
Jackson said the mother had distinctive long hair around her muzzle, which he got a good look at while capturing her cubs. That's how he knew the bear captured Monday morning was the sow they'd been chasing all week.
After releasing the sow this morning, Jackson said it shouldn't be long before she'll pick up the scent of her cubs and hopefully reunite.
Bear sightings in Kitsap County are the highest they've been in about six years, Jackson said previously.
The bears were first spotted in a Kitsap Lake neighborhood last week.
Wildlife officers were set to remove the bear trap left along Werner Road this afternoon. The trap was left in a church parking lot to try and capture the sow and her cubs. A trap set in Illahee last week has also been removed.
