The three puppies of the bear demolished after killing a motorcyclist in Romania will be captured (and are sentenced to captivity)

We told you about the dramatic story that involved a Italian motorcyclistOmar Farang Zin, who lost his life after approaching anOrsa with its three puppiesapparently to photograph it and feed her. The gesture, in stark contrast to the rules of the Arges natural park, proved to be fatal.

According to local authorities, the man would have stopped along a panoramic road to interact with the animal. A few hours later, his body was found At the bottom of a ravinemarked by obvious bites and scratches. A dynamic that brought the authorities to reduce the responsible bearbetween controversy and pain.

The puppies remained orphaned

A few days later, the attention has shifted to the three bear puppies remained alone at the point of the accident. The images reconciled by the ENPA show them While they wand around Waiting for a mother who will not return. According to what reported by the local press, most likely the little ones will be captured and transferred to a rehabilitation center. Here they will be weaned, but they will hardly be able to return to live in freedom.

“The puppies left after the demolition of a female must be urgently transferred to specialized centers. Art. 6, paragraph (3), explicitly provides: ‘In the event of extraction through euthanasia/demolition of a female with puppies, these are urgently transferred to specialized rehabilitation centers or authorized shelters'” reads a declaration of the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry and Fishing.

The story has divided public opinion, but the various thoughts counts little. What remains are three upset lives and a mother and a man who are no longer there, a direct consequence of a unwary and superficial gesture.

An increasingly difficult coexistence

There Romania hosts the largest population of bears in Europe, with numbers estimated between 10 and 13 thousand specimens. Despite the presence of precise rules to limit man-animal contact, tourists often ignore the prohibitions. Recent episodes document other cases of attacks caused by human behaviorlike the tourist who launched tennis balls to a bear or the forest guard wounded during an intervention.

To counteract this problem, the Romanian Parliament has decided for an absurd measure, opting for an increase in the Annual Tag of Abbotti. All this without dealing with the real crucial knot: the growing habit of bears to look for food among waste and approach human beings. Each demolition leaves orphans intended for a life in captivity. And every selfie too much has a cost that goes well beyond likes on social networks.
