The Guardian reported that search teams in British Columbia located the bodies of two women after they were reported missing over the weekend. The victims, a mother and her 20-year-old daughter, were found near a trail not far from their residence. Conservation officers said the deaths resulted from a grizzly bear attack and suspect more than one bear may have been involved. Late Tuesday, authorities confirmed both women had been killed, ending a frantic search for the family members. The tragedy has prompted local wildlife officials to review safety protocols for residents living in bear-inhabited areas. Meanwhile, community members are mourning the loss of the two women, whose identities have not been released.
