Abstract

Description

This thesis consists of 5 papers presenting information that I collected while studying black bears (Ursus americanus) in northern Wisconsin. The papers are written in the format of The Journal of Wildlife Management (JWM). "Homing tendencies of translocated nuisance black bears in northern Wisconsin" and "The response of black bears to being chased by hunting dogs", were presented at the 7th Eastern Black Bear Workshop in March 1984 and will be published in these proceedings. "Reproductive biology and denning behavior of black bears in northern Wisconsin" and "Home range, diel movements, and habitat use of black bears in northern Wisconsin" will be submitted to the JWM. "Incident of a snare imbedded in the neck of a black bear" will be submitted to The Wildlife Society Bulletin.
