Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks game warden Perry Brown prepares to hunt for a grizzly bear that killed Forest Service law enforcement officer Brad Treat near West Glacier, Mont. In this case, officials said it’s too soon to say what will be done to the bear if it is found. Brad Treat, 38, was knocked off his bike Wednesday after he another rider apparently surprised the bear — a grizzly, according to initial accounts — in the Flathead National Forest, authorities said. Treat was off duty-riding his bicycle on a popular trail network near the town when the attack occurred. That information could help authorities determine the size, age and sex of the bear, narrowing the search.
