Bears shot after threatening campers at Grand Beach campground last week
A female bear and her two cubs had to be put down recently after showing aggressive behaviour toward campers, said a spokesperson for the Manitoba government.
The three bears showed little fear of people, the government spokesperson said, and were becoming a greater threat to campers.
The bears had already been captured and relocated once before, he added.
On Thursday, before the animals were euthanized, the bears were seen rifling through coolers with people present.
The Grand Beach campground was then temporarily evacuated and the animals were killed.
According to the Manitoba Natural Resource Officers' Association Grand Beach is "black bear central."
