Authorities were searching Monday for a black bear that killed a man and a dog in South Florida. The attack occurred in a rural area east of Naples, just south of Big Cypress Wildlife Management Area, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission said in a statement.

On May 5, a bear apparently mauled a Collier County man and his dog to death. Has this happened before? How can you protect yourself?

We ask drivers to watch out for wildlife, particularly in the spring and at dawn and dusk when wildlife often are most active.”
