A group of three hikers encountered two bears near Conflict Lake in the Callaghan Conservancy at around 5 p.m., the B.C. Conservation Officer Service said in a social media post Saturday afternoon.
One of the bears attacked the woman before disengaging, officials said.

The woman received first aid at the scene before she was airlifted to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
Conservation officers said an adult male black bear found at the attack site was killed due to safety concerns.
However, officials said they have not determined whether a black bear or grizzly bear was responsible for the attack.
Officers returned to the area Saturday to continue their investigation.
Trail access in the area is now closed, and officials are asking people to stay away while the investigation continues.

Another innocent bear killed. Because of humans.
Whistler has a black bear problem the community refuses to admit to. The locals feed them like pets in their yards. The golf courses are littered with them at night. Just a matter of time before the Grizzlies catch on to the garbage ridden resort life style.
Why kill the bear. The hikers were in the bears territory. Was the bear killed the bear that attacked the person? How did they prove it was the right bear. All these parks trails national parks should be closed to the public, so the wildlife can be left alone. They should have signs saying there is a high risk for wildlife to attack you. You enter at your own risk.
When women choose the bear, and the bear chooses them back.
SO WHAT NOW ? KILL WRONG BEAR ONCE AGAIN, FOR TRYING TO EAT !!! SAME WAY WE DO EVERYDAY ? WE TAKE THE BEARS LAND, THEN KILL WHEN COME HOME TO EAT. SOUNDS GREAT

The government has no right to restrict my expression so why are they entitled to my identity?

I think Iran deserves to lose statehood.
Mecca should be treated like Rome, as a Nation unto itself.
Iran can be controlled by Saudi Arabia along with Iraq, Lebanon and Palestine if necessary, as in, become a new enlarged country.

Sounds like they shoot and kill first then try and figure out if it is the right bear.
