A big grizzly bear recently gave chase to a group of wild horses in Alberta! (Video)
A big grizzly bear recently gave chase to a group of wild horses in Alberta, Canada.The unexpected event took place about a two-hour drive northwest of Calgary on May 26, 2022.
A video of a bear chasing after wild horses captured by a trail camera is gaining attention online after being shared by an Alberta conservation group.
In the video, shared to Facebook on May 31 by the Help Alberta Wildies Society (HAWS), six horses and one foal can be seen racing past a camera with a grizzly bear not far behind.
In the Facebook post, the society says it has recorded eight different bears on trail cameras over the past few weeks.
“We are losing a lot of horses this year, sooner and quicker than in past years,” said the post. “Not just the foals. Adults also.”
“These trail cameras are part of a large network of cameras collecting video data on the plight and mortality of Alberta’s Wild Horses from both natural causes and large predators,” the group told ViralHog.
“Alberta Wildies Society has been conducting this research since 2014 and uses the data to promote worldwide awareness about our threatened population of Wild Horses here in Alberta, Canada.”
