00:02 A grizzly bear attacked and killed two people and their dog in Alberta's Banff National
00:07 Park on Friday.
00:09 Bear encounters are increasing as more people head outdoors, but fatal attacks are extremely
00:13 rare, accounting for only 14 percent of grizzly bear attacks worldwide.
00:18 Parks Canada responded to the location by ground through the night as weather conditions
00:22 did not allow for helicopter transport.
00:25 Responders discovered two deceased individuals upon early Saturday.
00:29 Banff National Park, which attracts over 4 million tourists annually, is home to both
00:34 grizzly and black bears.
00:36 There are approximately 60 grizzly bears in the park.
