In a separate incident, Glacier National Park officials announced that park rangers had euthanized a 5-year-old black bear on Tuesday. The 160-pound animal was captured in the Many Glacier area on the east side of the park on Sunday.
Rangers say it had become conditioned to human food, had broken several windows and gotten into a residence by breaking through a door.
