Now what? Do they hunt her down and kill her as if she were stalking and killing people like a maneater?
Would hope not, the states game wardens should easily recognize this is just a series coincidences piling together.

Primary Factors
1. Mother bear with cubs
2. Deer drive also drives other animals, one of those animals was a family of bears. Would think even without the cubs if the bear felt trapped would still attack.

Lesser factors we are still a part of nature, that means with every step outside your house you are part of the food chain whether we like it or not. At some point we get the rude awakening that we can still be prey.

Hope the girl heals and carries on, hope the state uses some sense, and hope we all keep the natural process in our minds.
