A black bear attack in Squamish, British Columbia, has led conservation officers to close a network of trails in the Skwelwil’em Squamish Estuary Wildlife Management Area. The incident occurred around 7 p.m. on Monday when a man running along a forested trail near Spit Road encountered two bear cubs. The mother bear charged at him, resulting in minor injuries to his arm and leg. In response, the B.C. Conservation Officer Service has installed signs and barricades to restrict access to the area, advising the public to avoid the trails until further notice. This is not the first incident in this area; a similar attack occurred in October when a woman was injured after encountering a sow with her cubs. The wildlife management area, which spans 675 hectares, is a critical habitat along the Squamish River and is frequented by outdoor enthusiasts, making these safety measures essential to prevent further incidents.
