Yellowstone Hiker Killed by Grizzly

The National Parks Service says a preliminary investigation shows that a hiker near the Elephant Back Loop Trail, near Lake Village, was killed by a grizzly bear on Friday afternoon.  The short Elephant Back Loop is known for being an area favored by grizzlies and is sometimes closed because of bear activity.  The hiker was a Montana man and an experienced hiker who worked for urgent-care clinics in the park.
