The future of the white bear is uncertain. Speculation it has already been killed by wolves has been dismissed as unlikely by a wildlife official.
Michigan's hunting season this year runs from September 7 to October 26, with some variation between districts.In July, the government of British Columbia banned the hunting of black bears, including white bears, in the territories of the Kitasoo/Xai'xais and Gitga'at First Nations in the Great Bear Rainforest in an effort to protect them.
"Obviously, I'd love to actually see it. If it did get harvested, we'd love to take a genetic sample and get to see if this is the same exact genetic mutation that is what is found in British Columbia in the remote bear population or if it's something different," Norton said. He added that if the bear"makes it through the season" then future trail cam photos could provide useful information on it.Hunting threats aside, there has been recent speculation that the bear may already have been killed by wolves.2 Detroit reported it had spoken to the Yooper Outdoors #906 group and that the owner of the original trail cam photos of the spirit bear had found pieces of what looked like white fur not long after the photo was shared online.
However, speaking to Detroit Free Press, Norton said it was unlikely that the bear had been killed by wolves as wolves don't typically attack bears. He said it's more likely that the bear has simply wandered off looking for food.
