B.C. man sentenced for killing bear sow and cub in Tofino

A British Columbia provincial court judge has sentenced a Tofino man to 30 days in jail and $11,000 in fines for illegally killing a black bear and her cub in his backyard two years ago.

A British Columbia provincial court judge has sentenced a Tofino man to 30 days in jail and $11,000 in fines for illegally killing a black bear and her cub in his backyard two years ago.

Ryan Owen Millar is also prohibited from hunting and possessing firearms for 10 years following his sentencing Monday for one count of killing a black bear outside of hunting season, and one count of killing a black bear younger than two years old.

The fines include $10,000 to be paid the Habitat Conservation Trust Foundation and $1,000 to be paid to the province, according to the BC Prosecution Service.

Millar was found guilty during a three-day trial in June, in which a witness testified that he and his wife were on vacation in Tofino on Oct. 14, 2021, relaxing in the hot tub of their rental home when they heard a commotion from the neighbouring property.

The witness testified that they saw two black bears climbing approximately four and a half metres up a tree on the neighbour's property.

When the couple got out of the hot tub to take up a better viewing position inside the home, they noticed the man next door was also watching the bears.

The witness identified the neighbour as Millar, and said he watched him come outside with a longbow and a crossbow before putting an arrow in the longbow and pointing it up at the tree.
