One oil worker in the Fort Mac area was killed by a bear about a month ago. She had no bear spray or firearm.

Apparently bears when they come out of hibernation are very hungry till about mid July. Those runners in the video should be carrying bear spray as a deterrent but obviously had nothing.

Usually black bears are not aggressive but I would think hunger would make them otherwise.

Recently in the Jasper area a car got between a female grizzly and a male grizzly.
The grizzly (I would think the male) saw it as competition and rammed the car. Damage was $5000!.
