“The team worked very hard to move all 915 pounds of him up here to the hospital," said Tyler Boyd, the Oklahoma City Zoo Curator of Carnivores.
Wiley, an 18-year-old grizzly bear, along with his brother Will, received his once every three-year wellness exam.
“This is a little more in depth than your dog or your cat, however they receive the same excellent medical care from our veterinary staff here," said Boyd.
Wiley and Will were rescued from the Alaskan wilderness after their mother was killed, and brought to the OKC Zoo in 2003.
