Police and Manitoba conservation officers are playing the waiting game with a large black bear who climbed high up a tree in a residential area. "[In] probably the biggest tree on the property, maybe even in the neighbourhood, is this humongous bear. "And it's way up the tree, probably about as high as you'd ever seen a bear in a tree." A large black bear wandered into a Winnipeg neighbourhood and up a tall tree on Saturday morning. If human safety is endangered, officers can put down bears, Belanger said.
