Canoeist stabs bear to death in Ontario (w/6 in. hunting knife)

I don't know what "relocated" means in this context, but it appears that are dead. Did they "relocate" to another world? Is bear-hunting purely a sport? Do hunters eat the bear-meat as well? I've met one person that will shoot a bear if it is taking his kill but won't don't eat bears because they are carnivores and for other reasons such as a skinned bear looks pretty close to a human.
 
Yep .... bear meat is good taste like pork....who ever said a skinned bear looks pretty close to a human ain't skinned any bears

How true. I am in the Texas Hill Country about a mile outside of a fairly small town. I take a walkabout for a few miles every morning. I don't bother with a knife but I do take an Irish blackthorn walking stick. No bears around here but there are some rabbits about every morning that give me the evil eye and act kind of surly. They haven't jumped me yet but if they do I will pound their furry butts.
 
Those bears were "relocated" to the floor in front of someone's fireplace, maybe?

If you wanna know all about bear attacks, I can recommend a couple of books.

Bear Attacks: Their Causes and Avoidance, by Stephen Herrero.

Mark of the Grizzly: True Stories of Recent Bear Attacks and the Hard Lessons Learned, by Scott McMillion.

Those are two I've read at least a major part of, and of course if you search them up on Amazon, there will be cross-references to similar books.

I don't want to contradict the advice, "carry a gun in bear country," but I do think it's necessary to read up on bear attacks before you can make meaningful use of that advice.
