The carcass of a bear was reported last night by a hiker in the woods of Cavedago: the recovery was dealt with this morning by Trentino Forestry Corps personnel. It is a male plantigrade, presumably 'sub-adult', dead for a few days. The carcass will be handed over to the Istituto Zooprofilattico Sperimentale delle Venezie, which will conduct the necessary investigations, also to establish the animal's identity.
On the other hand, the news circulating on the web about a dog being attacked by a bear is not confirmed. The latter was reported by the barking of the pet outside a house in Dimaro, but there was no contact.
