[edit] Plot Summary
Catherine and her team investigate when a hunter and a Kodiak bear are found dead in the mountains. The hunter has been mauled by the bear which has been shot by 2 bullets and only one matches the hunters gun. The bullets were recovered by Doc Robbins carrying out necropsy on the bear. Being Kodiak bear, it's not native to Nevada and is tracked down to Clark County zoo. The park keeper explains how the bear was sold to a broker and hands over the documents. These turn out to be fakes. An encoded serial number is found on these documents, apparently placed there by the photocopier. The number leads them back to the zoo. Meanwhile the other bullet is traced back to a Magnum used in a prior robbery where the suspect was released due to lack of evidence. Nick and Warrick visit the suspect and he admits killing the bear, but says the hunter was already dead. Further investigation leads the team to conclusion that the bear was used in an illegal canned hunt whereby a drugged big game animal is released into the wild so that a wealthy hunter can kill it. In this instance, the Magnum owner and the Park keeper had arranged the hunt. The first shot by the hunter only stunned the bear which then killed the hunter when he approached. The 2 suspects fled the scene.
