Officials say a bear has been killed after it attacked a woman and her dog in southern Oregon over the weekend.
reports the incident happened on Sept. 4, when the animal attacked the woman and her dog while the two were in their backyard in west Medford.Authorities said the woman and her dog suffered injuries in the attack. The woman’s left arm and leg were injured, but she is expected to survive after her dog helped scare the bear away.
Police initially said they couldn’t find the bear, but it was eventually spotted on Tuesday by a neighbor in a nearby yard. On Wednesday, Medford police said officers shot and killed the animal, as it’s their policy that any bear which is a threat to human life must be killed and not relocated.Copyright 2022 KPTV via Gray Media Group, Inc.
