DEC Looking for 3 Missing Bears

The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation is looking for 3 missing black bears in Allegany County. The D-E-C is looking for these three particular bears because they were fitted with electronic radio collars, which stopped transmitting last fall. Darren Schrader of the DEC says the collars help researchers figure out where the bears live and how far from home they roam. The bears are three of about 50 bears the DEC has tagged since 1994. Schrader says although the bears' collars are not transmitting, that does not mean they aren't alive. He says there's probably a problem with the units.
