Default ...... suicide black bear?

Driving up Rt 93 in Campton at 7:30am today, about 500-yards south of Exit 28 on the Campton flats, saw what looked like a large, dead, black bear on the breakdown lane just behind a DOT big orange truck with a couple DOT guys standing around.

Earlier at about 5:30-am in the same location on Rt-93-south there were two state police cars with blue lights on, and a flat bed truck removing a car.

Someone else said the bear had its head in a trash bag, and got hit by the car, and with no ambulance present, could be no personal injuries, except for the dead bear? This is conjecture?

Also is possible the bear was stopped on the road to eat a dead squirrel as I've seen a fox on the road stop to eat a dead chipmunk. Now today, there's two 50-yard long lines of fresh black tire tread going straight up the right lane until the last 20-feet when they curve to the right. A black bear on black pavement would be difficult to see in the dark and the treads suggest they stepped on the brakes hard but it was too late for the bear and the car?

So, what O what does the DOT do with a dead bear ....... make black bear stew ...... and a nice black bear rug ... or what?
