CPW states in a statement that they are reluctant to euthanize bears unless they can be dangerous to humans. That was the case with this bear; CPW manager Cory Chick said the bears would likely attack humans again. “Once a bear has injured or eaten a human, we don’t take the risk that it could happen to anyone else,” he says in a statement.
Dangerous animal
According to him, a bear that loses its fear of people is a dangerous animal. “This mother taught her young that humans are a food source, not something to be feared and avoided.”
The woman’s body is expected to be further investigated tomorrow to officially determine the cause of death.

Deadly attack rare
A deadly attack by a bear is uncommon in Colorado. The last time that happened, according to the BBC in 2009, when a 74-year-old woman was killed after being attacked by a bear near her house. According to CPW investigations, the victim was illegally feeding animals through a fence in her yard.
