Trying to capture it?!?
There’s the problem... if they had just shot the thing, probably wouldn’t have had a single injury, and someone would have a nice throw rug.
I guarantee you if this was in the U.S., it would have been a dead kitty very shortly. My state of Wisconsin has had two incidents in the past five or ten years of bears being killed simply because the authorities thought they MIGHT be dangerous.
One young adult, male bear was shot and killed by the DNR in a La Crosse, Wisc. park because they thought that after it had climbed a tree in the park, it might harm some people when it descended.
Many people were upset that it wasn't tranquilized. The local DNR said it didn't have a tranquilizer gun. So they killed even though the bear was still in a tree and wasn't harming anyone.
