Body Found on Grand Mesa, Bear Suspected | Denver News

A body was found scattered and scavenged near a picnic area on the Grand Mesa in western Colorado, with authorities suspecting wildlife—likely a bear—consumed the remains. Investigators are working to identify the victim and determine the cause of death, asking anyone who was near Wild Rose Campground between June 22 and July 5 last year to come forward. While no immediate threat to the public exists, officials are urging campers to respect wildlife by storing food properly, keeping pets leashed, and knowing how to safely react if encountering a bear—stay calm, don’t run, and use bear spray if needed.
