| Fatal bear attacks in North America have occurred in a variety of settings. There have been several in the bear’s wilderness habitat involving hikers, hunters, and campers. Brown bear incidents have occurred in their native range spanning Alaska, Northern and Western Canada, and portions of the Rocky Mountains in the United States. The locations of black bear wilderness fatal attacks reflect their wider range; all Canadian Provinces except the Atlantic Provinces, and several major mountainous areas in the United States. |
