多伦多讯 — 据当地政府部门及死者雇主透露，一名27岁男子上周末在萨斯喀彻温省北部遭美洲黑熊袭击身亡。
萨斯喀彻温省社区安全部在发给CBS新闻的一份声明中证实，袭击事件发生在萨斯喀彻温省中部诺斯兰丁角东北约53英里处。
该部门表示，该地区保护服务部门的野生动物人类袭击应对小组正在调查这起事件，并补充道：“在这段艰难的时刻，我们与他的家人、朋友和挚爱同在。”
受害者是温哥华铀矿勘探公司UraniumX Discovery Corp旗下一处设施的独立承包商。该公司在其官网的一份声明中表示，他上周末在一处偏远的铀矿勘探现场遭遇了黑熊。
“我们对这一悲惨损失深感悲痛。我们向逝者的家人、朋友和同事致以哀思和最深切的慰问。我们员工、承包商以及所有参与我们项目人员的安全与福祉，现在是、并将永远是我们的最高优先级。”UraniumX首席执行官埃森·博尔德库（Esen Boldkhuu）在声明中说道。
作为预防措施，自事件发生以来，该公司祖湾（Zoo Bay）项目的所有野外作业均已暂停，目前调查仍在进行中。

CBS新闻的加拿大合作伙伴加拿大广播公司（CBC News）援引受害者兄长的话报道称，他三年前从印度来到加拿大。
萨斯喀彻温省社区安全部在发给CBS新闻的声明中表示：“涉事黑熊在警方抵达前已被现场一名平民实施安乐死。”该动物随后被送往地区兽医学院进行尸检。
就在黑熊袭击事件发生的同一天，萨斯喀彻温省政府向居民发出提醒，需警惕在住宅和露营地附近寻找易获取食物的饥饿黑熊。
“美洲黑熊智商很高，且受食欲支配。减少吸引它们的物品是减少此类接触的最有效方式。”当局警告道。
专门研究人类与黑熊互动的萨斯喀彻温大学环境与可持续发展学院教授道格拉斯·克拉克（Douglas Clark）告诉加拿大公共广播公司CBC，萨斯喀彻温省的致命熊袭击事件十分罕见。
“上一起致命熊袭击发生在六年前，”克拉克对CBC说道，“而在记录中，再上一起则要追溯到更早很多年。”
上周，当局表示，蒙大拿州冰川国家公园一名失踪徒步者的死亡可能由熊袭击所致。
随着人类不断深入全球各地熊类的自然栖息地，部分地区的人类与熊相遇的情况正变得愈发常见。去年致命熊袭击数量创下纪录后，一家生产外观凶猛的机器狼的日本公司接到了大量订单。
Bear kills worker at uranium mining company’s facility in Canada, forcing operations to shut down

Toronto — A 27-year-old man was killed in a black bear attack over the weekend in northern Saskatchewan, according to local authorities and his employer.
The attack happened about 53 miles northeast of Points North Landing in central Saskatchewan, the province’s Ministry of Community Safety confirmed in a statement to CBS News.
The ministry said the regional conservation service’s Wildlife Human Attack Response Team was investigating the incident, adding: “Our thoughts are with his family, friends, and loved ones during this difficult time.”
The victim was an independent contractor working at a facility belonging to the Vancouver-based UraniumX Discovery Corp. He encountered the bear over the weekend at a remote uranium exploration site, the company said in a statement on its website.
“We are deeply saddened by this tragic loss. Our thoughts and deepest condolences go out to the family, friends, and colleagues of the deceased. The safety and well-being of our employees, contractors, and all personnel working on our projects is, and will always remain, our highest priority,” said UraniumX CEO Esen Boldkhuu in the statement.
As a precaution, all field operations at the company’s Zoo Bay property have been paused since the incident, while the investigation is underway.

CBS News’ Canadian partner CBC News, citing the victim’s brother, reported that he had come to Canada from India three years ago.
“The black bear involved in the incident was euthanized by a civilian on scene prior to officers arriving,” the provincial Ministry of Community Safety said in its statement to CBS News. The animal was then transported to a regional veterinary college for a necropsy.
On the same day as the bear attack, the government of Saskatchewan had issued a reminder to residents to be wary of hungry bears seeking easy food near homes and campsites.
“Black bears are intelligent and ruled by their stomachs. Limiting attractants is the most effective way to reduce these interactions,” the authorities warned.
Fatal bear attacks in Saskatchewan are rare, Douglas Clark, a professor at the University of Saskatchewan’s School of Environment and Sustainability, who specializes in human-bear interactions, told Canada’s public broadcaster CBC.
“The last one was six years ago,” Clark told CBC, “and you have to go quite a few years earlier before you find the next ones in the record.”
Last week, authorities said a missing hiker’s death in Montana’s Glacier National Park was likely caused by a bear attack.
As humans spread deeper into bears’ natural habitats around the world, encounters are becoming more common in some places. A Japanese company that makes ferocious-looking robotic wolves has been swamped by orders after a record number of fatal bear attacks last year.
