Grizzly tötet Wanderer im Yellowstone - National park

A bear in Yellowstone National Park in the U.S. for the first time in 25 years killed a man. The grizzly bear was with her boys when they attacked the walkers on Wednesday (local time), said the park administration.



The man was with his wife in the Wapiti Lake Trail was the road when the two were joined at the bear with her little ones. Apparently, the female bear was trying to defend their young. Another group of hikers have heard the cries of the woman and alerted the park guard.

"It is extremely unfortunate that the trip ended the couple in this tragedy," said park Chief Dan Wenk. Rangers were on their way to retrieve hikers and campers from remote areas of the park. All campsites and hiking trails in the area of ​​the attack had been blocked. At the Wapiti Lake Trail also a warning sign had been erected.

Game wardens searched for the bear, said a spokesman for the park to the ABC. The animal should not be captured because it was well warded off a perceived threat and does not attack people for no apparent reason. The case was different than in 2010, when a bear killed in the middle of the night at a campsite outside of Yellowstone Park one man and injured another man.This animal was eventually captured.

The Yellowstone Park in the northwestern United States is the oldest national park in the world. There live hundreds of grizzly bears, which are a tourist attraction. The brown bear, the bear Ursus arctos horribilis scientific name, can weigh several hundred pounds.

Immigrants is generally recommended to be traveling in groups, make noise on confusing points and special pepper spray against bear attacks is with you. The largest part of the park is located in the U.S. state of Wyoming. But he goes into the neighboring states of Montana and Idaho.
