Grizzly that killed woman near Yellowstone and attacked someone in Idaho killed after breaking into house

West Yellowstone, Mont. — A grizzly bear that fatally mauled a woman on a forest trail west of Yellowstone National Park in July and attacked a person in Idaho three years ago was killed after it broke into a house near West Yellowstone over the weekend, Montana wildlife officials said Wednesday.

Early Saturday, a homeowner reported that a bear with a cub had broken through a kitchen window and taken a container of dog food, Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks said in a statement.

Later that day, agency workers captured the cub and shot the 10-year-old female grizzly with authorization from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, because grizzly bears are protected under the Endangered Species Act.
