Default Huge bear killed on I 78

700 lb killed by tractor trailer on I 78 in Berks county. In this mornings paper. The bear was tranquilized Adams county and it was transported to Perry Co and released,it then wound up in a tree in Leola Lancaster Co where it was tranquilized again , it weighed 550 lbs, it was transported to Dauphin Co and released on SGL 211. It wondered east and on Nov 12 it was killed on I 78 in berks county. The officer said it had gained 150 lbs since it was apprehended in Lancaster co which would make it 700 lbs. The bear was purchased from the PGC by a Berks Co hunter education instructor coodinator who is going to get it mounted. What a thrill that would have been to someone who took it in season.
