A grizzly bear attacked and killed a 38-year-old mountain biker as he was riding along a trail just outside Glacier National Park, Montana, authorities said. Grizzly bear kills mountain biker near US National ParkREUTERS Before Wednesday (Thursday NZT), there had been 10 bear-related human deaths in Glacier since the park was created in 1910. The last was in 1998, when three bears killed and partially ate a park vendor employee while he was hiking. At least 700 more grizzlies live in and around Yellowstone National Park, which is roughly 579 kilometres south of Glacier. In the most well-known Glacier attacks, bears killed two people in different parts of the park in a single night in 1967.
