Read this excerpt from "Close Encounters of the Bear Kind" by Susan E. Quinlan. John is a biologist with the Alaska Department of Fish and Game. His study area is the Tanana Valley, a boggy lowland in central Alaska. It's prime black bear habitat, but most of the ground is too wet for dens. Unfortunately, the only dry areas that seem good for dens also happen to be used by the U. S. Army for winter training. So to protect both bears and soldiers, the army hired John to find out where most bears in the area hibernate.

John spent last summer fitting bears with radio collars like the one that is now leading him to a den. The collar has a transmitter that sends out a beep John can track to its source. It also has an activity sensor that speeds up the beeps when the bear moves.

Which answer best summarizes this text?
