The cub was found partially hidden by a clump of bushes by a dog-walker near 69th St., the New York Times reports. The cause of death is not yet clear, but a team from the Bronx Zoo is scheduled to perform a necropsy in order to determine how the bear died.
A spokeswoman for the Central Park Conservancy told the Times that the 3-foot-long cub appeared to be a black bear. There are no bears in the Central Park Zoo, she said, so the situation is highly unusual.
