He encountered the bear over the weekend at a remote uranium exploration site, the company said in a <a href=\"https:\/\/uraniumx.ca\/news\/2026-05-11-zoo-bay-incident\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">statement on its website<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are deeply saddened by this tragic loss. Our thoughts and deepest condolences go out to the family, friends, and colleagues of the deceased. The safety and well-being of our employees, contractors, and all personnel working on our projects is, and will always remain, our highest priority,&#8221; said UraniumX CEO Esen Boldkhuu in the statement.<\/p>\n<p>As a precaution, all field operations at the company&#8217;s Zoo Bay property have been paused since the incident, while the investigation is underway.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"embed embed--type-image is-image embed--float-none embed--size-medium\">\n<p>      <span class=\"img embed__content \"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets2.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2026\/05\/13\/cb4509f4-be68-44e1-b29d-769d613aa261\/thumbnail\/620x413g8\/a3eebe8e28f29cc56c8a7544741b5eda\/black-bear-2237291162.jpg#\" alt=\"An American black bear (Ursus americanus) is walking through \" height=\"413\" width=\"620\" class=\" lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets2.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2026\/05\/13\/cb4509f4-be68-44e1-b29d-769d613aa261\/thumbnail\/620x413g8\/a3eebe8e28f29cc56c8a7544741b5eda\/black-bear-2237291162.jpg 1x, https:\/\/assets1.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2026\/05\/13\/cb4509f4-be68-44e1-b29d-769d613aa261\/thumbnail\/1240x826g8\/2272e06223efbef3513c4f319f9728b6\/black-bear-2237291162.jpg 2x\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/span><figcaption class=\"embed__caption-container\">\n<p>                  <span class=\"embed__caption\">An American black bear walks through a meadow at Cameron Cove, in Barnard Harbor, Princess Royal Island, British Columbia, Canada, in a file photo.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>                  <span class=\"embed__credit\"><\/p>\n<p>                Wolfgang Kaehler\/LightRocket\/Getty<\/p>\n<p>                          <\/span><br \/>\n              <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>CBS News&#8217; Canadian partner CBC News, citing the victim&#8217;s brother, reported that he had come to Canada from India three years ago.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The black bear involved in the incident was euthanized by a civilian on scene prior to officers arriving,&#8221; the provincial Ministry of Community Safety said in its statement to CBS News.
