Grizzly bear found dead near Yellowstone prompts investigation and outrage
CBSN
A grizzly bear that appeared to have been killed was found near Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming, prompting an investigation from federal officials.
Photographer Amy Gerber spotted the bear along North Fork Highway early Monday near the city of Cody, and her photos of the dead animal went viral on Facebook. One post received more than 1,000 shares and hundreds of comments, mainly from people angered that the bear was possibly killed. Images of the bear appear to show a bloody and disfigured face.
A representative for the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service confirmed to CBS News they are investigating the incident, saying "due to the nature of ongoing investigations we are unable to comment further at this time."

A single moment captured by an Army photographer became the most enduring image of America's greatest military operation.
