Park staff found two cans of bear spray at the scene and that the individuals' food had been hung appropriately to avoid attracting animals, Parks Canada said in a statement. The deaths were the first from a grizzly bear in Banff National Park in decades and involved a bear that was not collared, tagged or previously known to park staff, according to the statement. Parks Canada was alerted about the bear attack late Friday and the response team shot and killed the animal when it charged at them. Banff National Park, which attracts more than 4 million tourists every year, is home to both grizzly and black bears. There are about 60 grizzly bears in Banff National Park and are considered to be a threatened population in Alberta.
