Search underway for 3 orphaned cubs after bear killed in Whistler for biting woman
Wildlife officials are racing the clock to find a trio of orphaned bear cubs in Whistler, after their mother was put down for attacking a dog walker earlier this week.
The B.C. Conservation Officer Service (BCCOS) said the mother bear was killed after it knocked a woman down and bit her in the Kadenwood neighbourhood on Monday evening.
On Tuesday, the BCCOS received reports from the same area about the cubs, which they now believe belonged to the sow. Conservation officers searched the area but couldn’t find the youngsters.
