Bear mauls four dogs in Hoonah, gets killed

there bears are waking up so be aware!

A brown bear killed at least three dogs in Hoonah recently before police euthanized it — they feared the bear could have attacked a human next.

The male bear, estimated to between 4 and 5 years old, killed and stashed the remains of at least three dogs in Hoonah since late April, police say. A fourth dog was mauled but survived.
