A celebrity black bear who frequented the trash cans of Los Angeles
suburbs in search of food has been tranquilized and relocated,
officials said, ending the debate over whether he should be euthanized
or allowed to roam the streets. The Glendale population, home to one of
the largest Armenian communities outside of Armenia, has affectionately
named the bear "Glen Berian," following the Armenian custom of ending
names in "ian." The California Fish and Game Department tweeted
that Glen Bearian is "safe and sound asleep in a DFG truck, on his
way back to forest." Glen Bearian was spotted at least a half dozen
times last week alone, most recently on Sunday morning, according to
The Los Angeles Times. He had been shipped at least 25 miles into
the Angeles National Forest, but managed to make it back to town,
which the California Fish and Game Department spokesman Andrew Hughan
called an "Olympic feat.
