This report summarizes preliminary radio-telemetric monitoring of black bears following damages to beehives. Nine bears were translocated distances of 18 to 122 km. Four radio-collared bears were released at the site of capture Four translocated bears returned distances of 22.9, 23.3, 37.4 and 38.6 km to the area of capture. Three bearstranslocated distances of 48.3, 69.5 and 101 km, did not return. Movements of two control bears were extensive; greatest distances between locations were 24 and 35 km. Data are compared to that from other studies of translocated bears and implications to the management of the bear-beehive conflict are discussed.
