Despite no arrests being made, security teams at the G7 summit had their hands full dealing with over 200 wildlife-related incidents. The operation was a collaboration between the RCMP, local police, Alberta authorities, and even the Canadian Armed Forces—suggesting everything from curious bears to lost moose might have caused unexpected disruptions.

Editor’s Note: It’s a quirky but serious reminder of how major events in nature-rich areas can clash with local ecosystems. While it’s amusing to imagine armed forces shooing away raccoons, it also highlights the logistical challenges of hosting high-profile gatherings in places where wildlife isn’t keen on RSVPing.
