Description

Black bears (Ursus americanus) continue to damage beehives in the Peace River area of Alberta. The Alberta Fish and Wildlife Division initiated intensive bear control and studies of beeyard damages in 1972 and studies of bear biology, electric fence effectiveness, translocations and electro-shock conditioning since then. These programs have been sumtiarized in earlier reports (Quaedvlieg, et. al. 1973, Gunson 1974, Denison and MacGougan 1975, Pecharsky 1975, Gunson 1975, Allen 1976, Dorrance and Gunson 1976, Gunson and Pipella 1977, Gunson and Cole 1977). This report summarizes data on damages and bear captures from 1972 to 1976, inclusive.
