In a rare kind of attack, a bear killed a man in Crystal, New Mexico, on Thursday, local police said. Authorities shot the bear, and the creature fled into woods near the scene of the attack. They said they ultimately found the bear and “neutralized” the animal.They neither identified the victim nor said what type of bear had killed him.
The only known species in the area is the black bear, Ursus americanus.
North America generally has only a handful of fatal bear attacks annually.
That's not a lot of comfort for the deceased's family in this case, it it?
