The Ministry of Natural Resources says its looking into an attack by a black bear on a Kenora hunter just south of Woodland Caribou Provincial Park.
A moose hunter was mauled on Monday morning.
MNR Spokesperson Leo Heyens says because black bear attacks are relatively rare, they want to find out if there was anything wrong with the animal.
Heyens says that parts of the bear have been sent away for testing to find out if it was suffering from some sort of disease.
The hunter was able to kill the bear using an arrow.
The man was taken to Lake of the Woods District Hospital and is recovering from his injuries.
