    It's unknown exactly how many black bears live in Sonoma County, but one had a fatal encounter this week near Forestville. A four hundred-thirty pound male black bear was stuck and killed on River Road. CHP Public Information Officer David deRutte told KRCB News the bear was hit by a Chevy pickup truck at 4:38 am Tuesday morning along westbound River Road at Trenton Road. The driver of the truck was not injured, and the bear initially survived the impact.
