(ANSA)) - Trento, July 15 - A bear was captured Sunday after
authorities said it was a danger to farm animals but escaped
from a pound by climbing over an electric fence Sunday night.
The bear, dubbed M49, is being hunted again in the area
around Trento.
Trento officials issued an order to put the animal down but
animals rights activists contested the order.
The bear has not been fitted with a tracking collar and is
being hunted using dogs.
