JACKSON, Wyo. - The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service said on June 11 that it is working on a plan to carry out a targeted hazing operation against a local grizzly bear which has situated herself near a heavily trafficked highway in Wyoming.
The bear, commonly known by wildlife personnel and local observers as "Felicia" or Grizzly Bear 863, has reportedly become desensitized to human interaction. So have her two cubs, who appear to not run when people approach them to take photographs, officials say.
