## Editorial caution
This article separates confirmed reported events from allegations and emotional online claims. It does not decide whether every BCCOS decision was correct; it identifies the records that would be needed to judge the decisions fairly: conflict reports, attractant-enforcement records, relocation criteria, veterinarian/biologist advice, incident timelines and municipal waste/fruit-tree actions.
