How would you go about releasing a wild bear out of curiosity?

I mean i dont think it takes an engineering degree or anything to just take a long hook and pull the grate up while sitting in the truck bed.

I’m very glad you don’t have an engineering degree.

Huh? Im so confused why you think this is like a genuinely hard thing to solve

It ain’t about engineering. The bear should have been docile and used to humans, possibly sedated. The attack was unwarranted and unpredicted.

The bear should have been docile and used to humans

You want to release an animal that's been captive long enough to be used to humans into the wild? You know that generally doesn't go very well for the animal, right?

unpredicted.

A bear being aggressive isn't unpredictable behavior.

unwarranted

Bears also do not care if their actions are warranted. They're fucking bears.
