Some thirsty bears are being rounded up in northern Nevada. State wildlife officials have captured and released two more black bears in the Sierra and they're on the lookout for another one on the edge of Reno.
Biologists have handled 15 bears since July 1 in what they expect to be a busy bear season because the drought has them searching for food and water.
Most of the 15 bears have been safely returned to the wild – although two were hit and killed by cars and two were euthanized for public safety reasons.
