Officials killed an “aggressive” grizzly bear after two people were found dead in a bear attack at an iconic national park, Canadian officials say.
Banff National Park’s dispatch center received a GPS alert “indicating a bear attack” at about 8 p.m. Sept. 29, Parks Canada said in a news release. A team responded to the alert, which originated from the Red Deer River valley, the release said. Due to the weather, the team was forced to travel to the site by ground.
They reached the site at 1 a.m. and found two dead bodies, according to officials. While searching the area, the team ran into a grizzly bear that “displayed aggressive behaviour.”Royal Canadian Mounted Police arrived at the scene several hours later and transported the bodies, officials said. “This is a tragic incident and Parks Canada wishes to express its sincere condolences to the families and friends of the victims,” Parks Canada said.A promise to keep: One husband’s search for his wife amid the grisly aftermath of the 1918 Princess Sophia disasterA promise to keep: One husband’s search for his wife amid the grisly aftermath of the 1918 Princess Sophia disaster
