According to the Guardian and other foreign media, for the summit, Alberta authorities set up a fence at least 2 meters high around the conference hall for several kilometers. Electric fences were also installed at the point where wildlife frequently appeared. Security personnel are also patrolling the area around the conference hall with wildlife experts and blocking the path of wildlife movement in advance. In addition to removing buffalo berry bushes, advanced surveillance equipment such as thermal cameras and sensors are used to detect wildlife access in real time.
In this regard, Alberta's Minister of Public Safety told the Globe and Mail, a Canadian media outlet, that it is carrying out a 'comprehensive wildlife deterrence strategy' for world leaders who gather together.
The Cannaskis area, where the meeting will be held, is located at the foot of the Rocky Mountains, famous for its habitat for various wildlife, and is known to have many predator animals located at the top of the food chain, such as grizzly bears, moose, puma, wolves, and black bears. Usually, people are wary of humans and avoid them first, but there are also many cases where mother bears with cubs attack humans.
In fact, in September 2023, a bear attack killed two campers in Banff National Park, Alberta.
