You're much more likely to be attacked by a wild animal if you live in Alberta, a new report suggests. yyc yeg
A male Elk wanders through the grass along the Vermillion Lakes near Banff, Alberta Wednesday November 1, 2000.
The study, published by SportingPedia, explored data collected on human-wildlife incidents in a number of Canada's national parks between 2010 and 2021. Alberta's statistics are 3,726 wildlife attacks between 2010 and 2021, with the majority of those being attributed to elk. "They could be aggressive and charge without warning, especially during their calving season in spring, or in late summer during the mating season."
SportsPedia found 104 grizzly bear, 66 black bear and 86 wolf attacks in that province over the 11-year period it examined.Parks Canada says it's common for many people to believe elk are docile and safe to approach, but this is not the case.
