Four grizzly bears euthanized after fatal attack on mother and daughter in British Columbia

Using DNA analysis from the scene, authorities have identified the four grizzly bears responsible for the attack - a female bear and her three cubs. All have now been euthanized.

The women were attacked while walking near their home in Bella Coola, western Canada.

Last November, a school group was attacked by a bear in the same area, injuring 11 people, several of them seriously. However, the four bears were not involved in that incident, authorities say.
