Two people and their dog were found dead at Banff National Park on Saturday after a grizzly bear attack.

A GPS device alerted Parks Canada on Friday night, indicating a bear attack was happening within the Red Deer River Valley region west of Ya Ha Tinda Ranch in Canada’s Banff National Park... Due to poor weather conditions, an emergency team reportedly could not fly to the location via helicopter, so they traveled by ground during the night.

When the team arrived at the scene, they reportedly found two individuals who were deceased and ... The victim’s identities have not been released... Their family dog was also killed during the attack.

...

“They lived for being in the backcountry and were two of the most cautious people I know. They knew bear protocol and followed it to a tee,”

...

The bear responsible for the attack was later found and euthanized after it continued to display aggressive behaviors, Parks Canada said

Bears run much, much faster than both people and dogs.

Dogs routinely run down bears and hold them at bay or tree them.
