I think, again, that if you introduce a deadly pathogen to a bear population from a foreign bear, you kill a lot more bears in much more painful ways than shooting them. The article discusses the pathogen issue.
But if you like, I accept your concept for “don’t shoot one bear when you can potentially kill many bears much more painfully” even if I don’t agree with it.
Also, if I’m a troll, you should be flagging me for the moderators. I doubt you will because a brief glance at my comment history would show that I was not a troll.
Releasing captured diseased animals has been done before. You are welcome to ask those that have done that what considerations were made for preventing the spread of disease, but as I have said repeatedly, I am not an expert in the relevant field, so I won’t speculate.

They removed my sarcastic comment calling it a troll. I have no expectation that they would recognize sea-lioning.

In other words: “I don’t care if you say you aren’t a troll, I don’t care if the mods say you aren’t a troll, I don’t care if your post history shows you clearly aren’t a troll. You disagree with me, therefore, you are a troll.”
Wildlife veterinarians job is to treat captured animals and release them back into the wild. If you want any specifics you would have one of them
In Churchill, Canada they have a polar bear jail, where they place captured polar bears that wander into town. I would guess that some veterinary care is provided since they stay there for up to 30 days, but you’d have to ask them for any specifics if you want it.
