I was very familiar with the nocturnal calls of these creatures - a series of rather blood-curdling shrieks, rising in pitch - when I worked at Kwahu Hospital from 1965 to 1967. Being in the Nkakaw Forest Reserve, there was a good population of these animals and I briefly had one as a pet - and have photos of it.

When you tranquilize a bear for how long are they out?

Depends on the tranq used and whether the correct initial dosage was used based on the animal's weight. Some meds require an antidote to bring the animal out post treatment.

`

Otherwise the idea is to give the animal enough tranquilizer so that is it awakening at the time manipulation/treatment ends.

If the animal is waking before treatment is completed a secondary dose can be calculated and administered to keep it quiescent for additional time.

The aggitation level and or pain level of the animal before it is tranquilized also plays a role in how well and how long the tranquilizer works.

What do bears regularly eat?

Bears and wolves prey on the same animals, such as deer, elk, and caribou. Bears also eat grubs, herbaceous plants, honey and other insects like ants. Bears have a very sensitive sense of smell, and are known to investigate wolf-kills. If only one wolf is present, the bear would challenge, and possibly chase away, the wolf. Conversely, if a pack of wolves came upon a bear-kill, they would probably chase the bear away. Adult male bears are known to eat their cubs. Polar bears eat seals and Grizzly bears eat salmon when in season. The Panda (yes, a bear) is a very picky eater and will only eat bamboo.
