Two people were killed in a suspected grizzly bear attack in Banff National Park, Canada, leading to the euthanization of the bear for public safety.
Parks Canada wildlife officials responded in the early hours to a report of a cougar near Muskrat and Wolf Street in Banff on Jan. 13 at 3:50 a.m.
Named Nakoda by locals, the bear has been seen in Yoho and Banff national parks before, but not very often.
The grizzly, spotted in April, has people pulling off Trans-Canada highways to catch a glimpse of unusually coloured animal.
‘There’s a really high likelihood that the pack is just gone altogether’
