Bear Found Near Southern California Freeway With Gallbladder, Paws Removed
A bear found dead near a freeway north of Los Angeles had its paws and gallbladder removed in what appears to be a gruesome case of crime of opportunity.
The black bear, found near the 14 Freeway near Sand Canyon Road east of Santa Clarita in Canyon Country, was likely struck earlier this week by a vehicle before the parts were removed, said Andrew Hughan, a spokesman for the California Department of Fish and Wildlife. The bear was found with a gash in its abdomen and the paws appeared to have been sawed or chopped off.

The gallbladder, particularly the bear's bile, is of black-market value for poachers because it is used in some types of medicines. The bear's paws are considered by some to be a delicacy.
"There were no signs of a gunshot, broken legs or hip -- this was a crime of opportunity," Hughan told the Los Angeles Times. "We are very confident it was hit by a car. This desecration of the body was done afterward."
