    "People living in the area say bears are frequently seen in the area, and don't pose a threat to residents."

    Gibsons resident Janeth Lesko was clearly traumatized by the experience of watching the bear being shot.


    So why did she stay to watch?

    I also wonder how traumatized she'd have been had the police not shot the bear and a day or so later it attacked someone's pet.... or child?



    Then her , like I would blame the RCMP for not shooting it lol

    The blame should be put on irresponsible owners of businesses and homes for not securing garbage. Its bear country and folks need to respect that.

    I think people would have reacted differently if conservation officers handled this instead of the police. But since conservation officers weren't available to deal with what the police saw as a aggressive animal they dealt with it the best way they thought. I hate to hear of any animal being killed like this, maybe police should be armed with tranquilizer guns for cases like this until conservation officers can arrive. A sad story.

    Um try "what the world sees as an agressive animal". No one looks at full size bear and says "Oh come here cutes bottsie,come play with me, here beary beary beary."

    Oh, I get the aggression, you're from Edmonton, lmao! Go Stamps!

    Seriously though, I don't recall saying people have cutesy moments with bears, but um....thanks for the education!

    At least the RCMP resisted the urge to taser it first.

    You should check out the news links from a couple weeks ago about the idiot in Whistler who was bitten by a black bear when he got too close trying for a picture.
