California has overprotected bears. They have an increasing bear population, increasing breakins by bears into homes, and now, the first documented fatality where a black bear killed a person and it was officially documented.

A BLACK bear did this?

Must have had a good reason. Release him on a no bail bond.

Now do that 39 million more times.

They said the request had to come from the house’s resident.

"That's some catch, that Catch-22," he observed.
"It's the best there is," Doc Daneeka agreed.

We have the same problem in Florida. We protected black bears for so long they have become nuisance bears and are getting into towns garbage cans and peoples homes.........

Once Sheriff Fisher determined a bear had been feeding on a human body, he asked the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) to issue a depredation permit so the bear could be legally trapped. CDFW refused to issue a permit. They said the request had to come from the house’s resident.

Evil sand insanity rule the day in CA.

If killing and eating the owner doesn't qualify to have the bear trapped or killed, then nothing does.

Did it occur to them that the owner COULDN'T request the permit?????

Idiots.

I don’t think this is just a coinkydink that it happened on “Gruesome Newsom’s watch.”

It needs to be wiped from the face of the earth once and for all.

Boo! I can BEARLY believe you said that.

I have to wonder if the lady had been feeding the bear? Did she have the back door open with the exception of the storm door?

There might be more to the story.

[MIchaelTArchangel]

It us Ray-zist to identify the race of the bear.

Bears are just a continuation of California habits on dangerous predators. They did the same with cougars decades ago in SoCal. Didn’t take long for stories surfacing of lone hikers and joggers getting killed. The cougars tended to eat a few major organs and leave the rest.

Place order for bear rugs now while they last.
