Black Bear Attacks Man In Hot Tub

Two weeks ago it was a bear attacking a guy in an outhouse, now this! Look people, we've built indoor bathrooms for a reason!!





A wild black bear has attacked a man in a hot tub at a ski resort in western Canada.



The 55-year-old holidaymaker was left with lacerations to the back of the head after the beast had swiped out with its paw. He was taken to the local Whistler Health Care Center for treatment.



Police rapidly located the bear about 100 meters away from the tub as it made a dash for a wooded area. A police statement released later revealed the animal had been destroyed, with police shooting and killing the spa-loving animal.



A necropsy will now be performed on the bear, “to determine the motivation for the attack,” the police statement added.



The man from Coquitlam, British Columbia said he “felt a heavy blow to the back of his head which propelled him forward in the hot tub”, Royal Canadian Mounted Police Staff Sergeant Steve LeClair said.



The man then “turned around and found himself face to face with a black bear. He yelled at the bear and retreated inside,” the statement added.

  • i just had a debate with myself while sitting in the hot tub a couple of nights ago..i was thinking if I should have brought and kept my handgun near the tub while i'm in it since i did feel pretty exposed and unable to hear anything approaching with the background noise of the jets..sucks this was actually a real life scenario for this guy. He made my decision easier..haha glock's coming to relax with me

  • i'll bet somebody has been feeding the bear or being lazy with their trash. black bears are mainly vegetarians.

    • @killingforgod mainly vegitarian yes, but the rest is comprised of insects and insect larvae, carrion and some have been known to hunt salmon at night because their fur stands out too much in the day.

      black bears don't like people and won't approach them unless they've been conditioned to.
