I, as I expect many others have given a lot of thought to this very unfortunate incident. Since posting this I feel I was in error saying this bear received no consequence. She indeed was given a consequence, that being, she killed a man and got what she wanted,
Threat Removed.. She in fact was positively reinforced as a consequence to hear actions. This increases the likelihood of her repeating this behavior if a similar situation were to arise in the future. It is a very poor decision to let this bear live anywhere there is a possibility of her encountering another human.
