A rare white grizzly bear named Nakoda and her two cubs were killed in separate vehicle collisions on the Trans-Canada Highway in Yoho National Park, British Columbia. Nakoda was struck and killed on June 6, just hours after her cubs were also hit and killed on the same highway. The deaths have caused significant sadness in the wildlife community. Special fencing had been installed to keep the bears away from the road, but the agile bears managed to climb over it. This incident marks the fourth grizzly bear death on the Trans-Canada Highway in Yoho National Park.
