Wildlife officials say a grizzly bear has been euthanized after tests determined it was responsible for a triple mauling in a Montana campground.
Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks spokesman Ron Aasheim said Friday DNA tests determined the sow killed a Michigan man and injured two others in unprovoked attacks in a campground overnight Wednesday.
The bear was euthanized after wildlife officials captured the sow and her three cubs at the Soda Butte Campground five miles from Yellowstone National Park.
Aasheim says the cubs will likely be placed in a zoo. Jackie Worstell, executive director of ZooMontana in Billings, says state officials have asked if her zoo could take the cubs.
A final decision is expected Friday or Saturday.
