Multiple area closures remain in effect at Whistler Blackcomb as B.C. conservation officers search for two cougars they say could be a risk to public safety. After several cougar encounters over the weekend, members of the B.C. Conservation Officer Service (BCCOS) were back on the ground with rifles and dogs searching, in part, near staff accommodations on Blackcomb Mountain. "It's kind of eerie feeling," staff member Li Grossi told Global News. "We just wanted to walk up the hill to get home, and we were stopped, like you have to take the bus, you can't go up." The Conservation Officer Service says because of their previous behaviour, the big cats could be deemed a public safety threat and killed. Global's Alissa Thibault reports.
