With the 31 July fatal attack by a black bear near Swan Hills in Alberta, Canada, 2021 has tied the record for the number of fatal bear attacks in one year. From ctvnews.ca:
EDMONTON — Mounties say a female tree planter was mauled to death by a bear in northern Alberta.
RCMP told CTV News they received a call just after 3 p.m. on July 31 regarding an attack in a rural area northwest of Swan Hills.
The 26-year-old woman was planting trees in the remote spot when she was attacked by what witnesses described to police as a black bear.
