Bear Euthanized After Attacking Camper in Lake Tahoe Trailer, Other Break-in Attempts | News Channel 3-12
- State wildlife officials euthanized a female black bear following its attack on a camper early Sunday at Emerald Bay State Park near South Lake Tahoe.
- The bear had caused multiple break-ins and conflicts in the area since at least June 10 and resisted several hazing attempts by wildlife officials.
- During the attack, the bear forced entry into the camper's locked trailer, swiped at her, and left cuts and bruises on her arms and hand before she was taken to a hospital.
- DNA testing confirmed this bear was responsible for the attacks and multiple vehicle and home break-ins near Cascade Road and Eagle Point Campground, leading to its designation as a public safety bear and removal.
- Officials hope the two cubs taken to Gold Country Wildlife Rescue can be rehabilitated and not learn human-conflict behaviors from their mother, while emphasizing euthanasia remains a last resort to protect public safety.
