THUNDER BAY – The Ministry of Natural Resources tranquilized and removed a bear from the city’s waterfront park Wednesday afternoon.

Thunder Bay Police Service officers and the Bear Management Technicians arrived at the Spirit Gardens area at Prince Arthur’s Landing at about 1:30 p.m. after reports of a bear were called in.

Officials located the bear in a pine tree.

After about two hours the MNRF conservation officer successfully tranquilized the bear and removed it from the marina safely.
