This is what pisses me off about this... we build homes pushing into the wilderness..

They should have trapped and sent him far away.

I visit West Vancouver anually and there is generally bear sitings. An aggressive bear will have to be removed.

It is a piss off.

They did. He came back. Still very sad though.

It wasn't so long ago that they caught a cougar in the parking garage of the Empress....and I'm not talking the 40 something variety either. I remember as a kid, having to stay inside when a cougar and her cub were spotted around Belmont Park and Royal Roads.
