Bear camps out in Chatsworth tree [Video]

A well-traveled bear ended up in a Chatsworth tree near businesses and homes. The female bear was in industrial business area overnight before she climbed the tree early Tuesday and camped out on a branch. The bear, wearing a tracking collar and ear tag used by wildlife experts to study California’s bear population, was captured in the Claremont area in late May and taken to Angeles Nation Forest. Authorities have been monitoring the bear since then, tracking its movement with the collar along the 210 Freeway corridor and into the Malibu area. Authorities tried to trap the bear Monday in the Northridge area before it showed up in Chatsworth.
