Learn what it’s like to care for black bear cubs and listen as the staff of the Wildlife Center of Virginia explain how they are working to understand and treat mange in wild bear populations and demonstrate what you should do if you encounter a black bear in need of help.

Department of Game and Inland Fisheries black bear biologist, Jamie Sajecki, gives us perspective on feeding wildlife, and our host Ed Clark explains our roles in being good bear neighbors.  For more information and classroom resources, check out the VPM Science Matters Initative.

Produced by VPM with the Wildlife Center of Virginia, UNTAMED looks behind the scenes of the center and explores the environmental issues that affect the wildlife that they treat.
