A female black bear and her cub, both having a recently acquired taste for honey, were caught Thursday morning in the Foothill Road area of Carson Valley by the Nevada Department of Wildlife.

The adult female was caught in the trap at around 2 a.m., said Chris Healy, spokesman for the Nevada Department of Wildlife. A trap was set in the area 10 days ago because there were complaints of bears doing damage to bee hives. The female cub was up a tree, above the trap, when biologist Carl Lackey responded.
