(Reuters) - The two people killed by a grizzly bear in Alberta's Banff National Park last week were on a permitted hiking and camping trip and there was no active bear warning at the time incident, Canadian park officials said on Tuesday.
Park staff found two cans of bear spray at the scene and that the individuals' food had been hung appropriately to avoid attracting animals, Parks Canada said in a statement.
