A grizzly bear sow that killed hiker Brian Matayoshi and was present at the scene of hiker John Wallace's killing has been captured and euthanized by Yellowstone National Park staff, but her two cubs were placed into confinement.

Pharmacist Brian Matayoshi, killed by a grizzly sow Wednesday, was on his fourth visit to Yellowstone National Park with his wife, Marylyn; they had never seen a bear on previous visits.
