What Can We Learn?--The Algonquin Bear Attack.
Strickland, Dan
Pathways: The Ontario Journal of Outdoor Education, v4 n3 p22-25 Jun 1992
Describes a bear attack in Algonquin Park in Lake Opeongo (Canada) in which a man and woman were killed. Hypothesizes that the bear deliberately preyed on its victims and concludes that the bear was physically normal. Despite this isolated attack, the chance of being attacked by a black bear when camping is virtually nonexistent. (KS)
