My uncle lives in very rural North Ontario. His neighbour (I say neighbour, but he lives about 3 miles away) was eaten by a bear last year.

They have these 'bear mats' on their porches, which are big squares of wood with nails in them. Nobody knows what happened here, but they just found a few bits of him and had to identify him by his DNA.

People are assuming that he had a heart attack or something, and that the bear was scavenging his dead body for carrion but nobody knows for sure
