Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW) officials killed a young black bear by Hagg Lake near Forest Grove recently because it had become habituated to humans.

Black bears are commonly seen throughout Oregon, even on the coast, but are typically seldom seen. The black bear in Washington County had been seen frequently at a popular boat ramp at Hagg Lake despite efforts to encourage the bear to head back to the woods.
