[Regnum] In Canada, the Wildlife Service euthanized a mother bear and three cubs that had mauled a woman and her daughter. This was reported on November 11 by People magazine.

The predators attacked 48-year-old Jennifer Balcarras and her 20-year-old daughter, Sela Reed, who were taking a walk in the woods on October 31. The mother and daughter did not return home for a long time, prompting other family members to raise the alarm.

Balcarras's remains were found on November 2, and her daughter's the following day. The girl's body was found in a so-called bear cache—a depression covered with branches and earth. Grizzlies typically hide their prey in such caches before eating it.

DNA testing revealed that both women were mauled by a female grizzly bear and her three cubs. A wildlife inspector stated that the animals attacked out of predatory motives, not self-defense. The decision was made to euthanize the bears for the sake of public safety, according to the report.

In July, a bear mauled an elderly couple who were vacationing on McTavish Lake in Saskatchewan, Canada. The couple lost contact, and relatives contacted the police. The couple's bodies were eventually found in various locations around the lake, bearing signs of the bear's attack.

About a month earlier, also in Canada, a woman drove off a grizzly bear that attempted to attack her with her piercing screams. The bear had approached the woman and her dog while they were walking in the woods. The woman's screams eventually scared it off.

I agree the mother needed to be put down.

But the Cubs' I'd donated to a zoo.

#1^ Procopius2k comment also makes a valid point about socialist headed Canada. If a person isn't good and tax productive for Socialism. They person tends to become dusty

3 Didn't canada just kill a bunch of zoo animals because zoo life is cruel, but so was releasing zoo animals into the wild?
