Testing on a bear that attacked an American tourist in Ear Falls last month has determined the animal did not have rabies. However, the man was still administered a $1,000 series of vaccinations for the disease, courtesy of Ontario taxpayers.
The 39-year-old Minnesota man was treated for numerous puncture wounds and scratches. Initial police reports said the victim and his friends stopped along Highway 105 to videotape a black bear when it charged and attacked the man, who was reportedly five to eight metres from the animal.
A review of the videotape determined he was much closer to the bear and feeding it candy before it attacked.
