A jogger in Squamish, British Columbia, is reported to have been injured after a black bear encounter on a trail network. Both outlets describe that the runner comes across a sow and cubs, and that the bear attack occurs after the jogger runs into the cubs and the sow. The Vancouver Sun reports that the jogger suffers minor injuries. The B.C. Conservation Officer Service is cited as saying the runner had encountered cubs on the trail and that the incident follows the jogger’s proximity to the animals. The Winnipeg Free Press similarly describes the encounter as involving cubs and the sow, leading to an attack and subsequent injury to the jogger. No details are provided in the excerpts about the jogger’s identity, the exact location on the trail system, or whether conservation officers make additional recommendations or take specific follow-up actions. The accounts focus on the circumstances of the encounter—especially the presence of cubs—and the resulting minor injuries to the jogger.
