Bear cub hides out for hours in B.C. backyard
According to Mike and Corinne Robson, a bear cub spent hours in their neighbour's backyard Wednesday. The bear even curled up under a table on their back porch.
Corinne hoped the bear could be taken to Critter Care Wildlife Society, a rehabilitation centre in Langley, B.C., that has room for the cub. However, when she spoke the agency, they said a conservation officer had to be the one to bring the bear in. "We get bears on our street all the time during the year because we're so close to the woods," she said. "I've never called before because I'm always worried that they're going to come out and kill the bear."
"I asked him what would happen if I took the bear to Critter Care and he said I would be arrested and go to jail for interfering with wildlife," Corinne said."I'm just worried that it might die before anybody does anything to help it," he said.
