A rare photo of Bruno the bear was taken by a Manfred Sprenger using his mobile phone in Bavaria.
A team of Finnish bear hunters -- who have brought along famously efficient Karelian bear dogs to speed up Bruno's capture -- began their work in the border area on Monday.
Each dog is equipped with a global positioning system (GPS) device so that bear trackers can quickly get to Bruno.
Once they find him, he will be shot with a dart filled with tranquilizers.
He will then be transported to a wildlife reserve so that he can live happily and residents in the Alps can live in peace.
Worse yet for Germans, Bruno leaves a mess behind wherever he goes.
Many German residents of the Alps believe Bruno is a major threat to safety. He's killed sheep and rabbits -- will a human be next?
