When you collect a tooth sample (pull out a tooth) what tooth do you pull?
What drug do you use for tranquilization? Do you adjust the dosage based on the size of the bear? How long do the bears stay asleep?
Do polar bears hibernate? When? Where?
Are you noticing a nervousness or skittishness on the part of the bears when they see the helicopter approach? We are especially interested in knowing about this in a return visit (when you approach a bear that has previously been collared)?
