BERN, Switzerland — Sharpshooters killed one of two bears in Switzerland after officials determined it had lost its fear of humans and posed a risk, authorities said Tuesday.
Environmental organizations expressed dismay, but government officials said they had no choice. The 2-year-old brown bear was the younger brother of an animal that met the same fate in Germany’s Bavaria in 2006. Both were part of a project to reintroduce bears to areas of Europe where they had been extinct.
