California's First Known Fatal Black Bear Attack: 71-Year-Old Woman Identified as Victim in Downieville

Broke On: Wednesday, 08 November 2023 In Downieville, a small Sierra Nevada community, a 71-year-old woman named Patrice Miller became California's first known fatal bear attack victim. An autopsy confirmed that a black bear caused her death by mauling her. The animal was later trapped and DNA confirmed it was responsible for the attack. Downieville, located about 50 miles northwest of Lake Tahoe, is home to approximately 35,000 black bears – the only type in California – which have increased significantly since 1982. Adult males can weigh up to 400 pounds and females around 100-300 pounds.
