Released Grizzly, away from the BC coast on the wasland of controversial, conservation officers were investigating
The Protection Officer of the British Columbia Seva (COS) says that a disgusting bear has been shot dead on an island from the Sunshine coast without any authority.
An investigation is going on, and the bear must undergo a necropy, Cos said in a Facebook post.
Earlier in the day, Seva said that it was investigating an RCMP report that the bear was shot and was probably injured by a public member in the van Enda neighborhood of Texada Island near the Pavel River.
Grizly was first seen in Texada on 25 May. The “tax” was named, the bear has provoked the debate among the residents of the 300-class-kilometer island, which is home for only 1,200 people.
Some residents wanted the bears to go or were killed, while others wanted it to be left alone.
BC Protection officials say that a serious bear that had caused problems in the past and was moved several times after BC’s largest Gulf island. The five -year -old man showed the late Mayas on the island of Texda, about 100 km north of Vancouver near the Pavel River. CBC’s Marriage Zidler has more
Texada usually does not host large predators as it sits between Sunshine Coast and Vancouver Island in Strait, British Columbia. Wildlife management experts say it is likely to swim on the island from the Pavel River.
The minister says that transfer was going on
Three coastal first nations worked together to come together Plan to transfer Grizzly BearAnd on Tuesday, after the news of the bear’s death, the province revealed that it was working to bring that plan.
Land Minister Randen Neil said in a written statement, “Time (of death) is particularly unfortunate because we were previously working actively with nations, trying to capture and translate the Grizley bear from Texada Island on a new plan.”
Neil said that the officers were actively searching for the bear to launch a living net when they received the news that it was killed.
What should happen to the Grizzly Bear on the island of Texda? It is causing problems in the community of about 1,000 people and is divided on whether it should be killed, removed, or left alone. There is an idea in three coastal first nations.
In an interview with CBC News, Eric Blanne of Shishlah Nation said that the nation was ready to go.
“We had a boat that was able to take him by boat, or we were going to blow him,” he said. “So, what we were waiting was for the provincial veterinarian to proceed for the administration of drugs.”
Blane said that there were abundantly salmon runs in the area that the bear must have been transferred, and he strongly admitted that if it moves, it would have won its best life.
He told CBC News that he heard that the bear was shot last week.

BC Conservation Officer Seva says that it is believed that a serious bear floats from Powell River to Texda Island. Texda resident Mark Robert shared the story of spotting it with guest host Rohit Joseph.
He said, “He was injured for a long time, before
Blane said that social media affects the bear’s position about misinformation and hatred.
“I think people were using the fear and either hate to spread the rumors, or were creating fear, or created circumstances that did not happen, which did not happen, sealing the fate of this bear,” he said.
Neil said that once a necropy was completed, the bear’s remains would be returned to Talamin First Nation and Shishla Nation.
That news of planned rehabilitation was a change from the previous information released by the province, indicating that transfer could not be an option.
The province had earlier told CBC News in a written statement that adult male Grizzly was estimated to be five years old, There is not a good candidate for transfer Because it had already moved twice.
Seva said that the bear was already transferred to the BC mainland last year wandered near Gibson and Sekhault schools and areas of the city.
After shifting to Vancouver Bay – Jervis Inlet returned to Grizzly Sunshine Coast, about 50 km north of Seychelt. After this, Jarvis was shifted to the distant end of the inlet to the north.
This statement also includes a list of problematic behavior, which includes bears in this year, including:
- On May 22, walking on a footpath in the Powell River, staring at two residents. The residents ran into the water, while the bear climbed the edge for half an hour, tore one of his jackets.
- On May 28, staring at a resident with your horse and dog for half a kilometer on the island of Texda.
- Allegedly chasing livestock on the island of Texda on 10 and 11 June.
The statement also said that there have been many visions of bears near a school, a store and fields on Texada.
‘Very, very sad’: Regional District Director
According to wildsafebc, the British Columbia has around 15,000 grizzly bears, representing a quarter of the North America-wishes of their total population, being considered “species” at risk by both provincial and federal governments with multiple population.
The non-profit group, the Grizzly Beer Foundation, which focuses on preserving Grizzle’s in North America, stated that it was important for lessons taken from bear’s death.
“Tex’s death is a tragedy that we should learn to make a better way for bears and communities,” said in a written comment by Executive Director Nicholas Scapilati.
He said that the Foundation would be working with first nations and other groups to co-existence with Bears for the province.
Regional District Director Sandy McCormic, who represents Texada, said she was “very, very sad” to hear the news of the bear’s death.
“Like many people on the island, I really feel that there should have been a chance to move it,” he said. “It should be a chance to flourish in a community that he wanted.”
McCormic stated that she came “within 40 feet of the bear” when it “stumbled into her yard,” and it did not show any aggression.
“It was a very beautiful looking animal.”
McCormic said that when she understood the fear of the people, especially in view of how some predators make their way for Texda, she says she wants to follow proper channels to remove the bear from the island.
“This is not the way,” he said.
