DNA test results on two of the three black bears recently removed
from the Tonto National Forest have confirmed that they were not involved in
the June 24 attack on a man at the Ponderosa Campground.
Officials say a lack of DNA material keeps them from
determining if any of the bears were involved in similar attacks on May 31 and
June 21.
Since the end of last month, two campers have been attacked
by bears while staying at the Ponderosa Campground, 10 miles east of Payson.
Another person was attcked by a bear in Tonto Village, which
is about a mile north of the Ponderosa Campground.
