BEARS IN THE
NATIONAL PARKS
Among the great attractions afford-
ed by Canada's national parks is the
opportunity to see wild animals in thdir
natural surroundings, but cured of the
fear of man, All national parks are
wild life sanctuaries, The animals
soon learn that man will not harm
them, and they become very tame:
Sometimes, particularly in the case of
bears, this proves to be their undoing,
The public loves to feed bears, and
otherwise to fraternize with them.
Notices in the parks and in the parks
literature asking them not to do ,so
have little effect. Perhaps if they un-
derstood that being "kind" to a bear
is the most unkind thing they can do
to Min, the park regulations would be
better observed:
Instances abound where bears had
been petted until they became so bold
and troublesome that they had to be
destroyed, In Waterton Lakes Nat-
ional Parka Mother bear and her two
cubs, which had been pampered by
tourists, tore the screen door °U fa cot-
tage while the family were out and
helped themselves to some fieshly.
baked pies, They also knocked over
and damaged the Icebox, food, glass.
ware and china Were destroyed, It
became necessary to shoot the mother
bear, and it is feared that. the game
treatment may yet have to be given to
the cubs.
In another instance two little cubs,
were apparently trying to climb a tree,
and two little girls tried to give them.
a helping hand. Just then the mother
bear appeared, and cuffed one of the-
children on the cheek with such viol-
ence that medical attention was re-
quired and the girl may carry a• scar
for life.
In Prince Albert National Park, in.
Saskatchewan, a man was about to
enter his cabin when he saw the rear
end of a bear protruding from the
corner of the building. Realizing that. •
the bear was eating out of the garbage-
can, he. thought it would be a wonder-
ful opportunity to surprise him, There-
upon he picked up a piece of 21x4""
and, sneaking up on the bear, gave it'
a hefty wallop. Quick as a flash the.
bear whipped around and struck" at his,
attacker, who wasn't quite quick
enough in getting away. Fortunately'
the man loft only part of his' clothing,.
and was able to get into the cabin be-
fore the bear could land another blow•
or the results might have been much•
more serious.
The black bear is one of the most'
playful and humourous of all animals,
but he is still a bear. He does not seek'
man's company in the first place, and,.
when it is thrust upon him, he is like-
ly to abuse it. If he is pampered he
expects more pampering. If he ' is,
given half a pie he will take the other
half, if it is within the reach of his-
powerful paws. Then there are coin-.
plaints that lie ,has become a nuisance
and he is shot. And it really is not'
his fault.
