DNA tests have confirmed that a female grizzly and her three yearling cubs killed a mother and daughter out hiking near Bella Coola in British Columbia. Jenny Balcarras, 48, and Selah Reed, 20, vanished on a trail on Halloween and their remains were found days later. Wildlife officers said the attack was probably predatory, which is very rare, and all four bears were put down.
