💨 Abstract

A California black bear, known for breaking into homes and confronting humans, was euthanized after attacking a camper near Lake Tahoe. The bear injured a woman and harassed other campers. Despite attempts to haze it away, the bear was deemed a public safety risk and euthanized. Its two cubs were sent to a rehabilitation facility. Officials remind residents to secure food to avoid bear encounters.
