US EditionDespite 'Good Practices' Bear Makes Repeated Visits to Revelstoke Camps
COLUMBIA-SHUSWAP, BRITISH COLUMBIA, AUG 6 – Dry conditions and limited natural food have led to food-conditioned bears repeatedly visiting campsites, prompting conservation officers to use live traps and euthanize two bears by June 30.
- On Aug. 3, a black bear repeatedly visited a campsite at Canyon Hot Springs in Glacier National Park, prompting a COS notification in Golden.
- Field CO Michael Boudreau said this time of year, dry conditions and attractants can lure food-conditioned black bears approaching tents at Glacier National Park.
- Within days, Field CO Michael Boudreau said he received four complaints and deployed a live trap in the Albert Canyon area after reports of a bear opening an unlocked vehicle door.
- Later, conservation officers euthanized a bear after it made repeated visits to campsites at Glacier National Park, as reported by Field CO Michael Boudreau.
- Amid ongoing bear interactions, Boudreau says local awareness is on a 'good trajectory' and conflicts are much less frequent than a decade ago.
