CO: Bear Shot and Killed by Property Owner after Killing Chickens

“Shortly after (the wildlife officer) drove off, the bear showed up again while the residents were doing some yard work,” Lewandowski said. “It came within 10 yards of them and was showing no fear of being near people.”

Around 8 p.m., the property owner shot and killed the bear. Lewandowski said he was “protecting his property so it was legal for him to kill the bear.”
