A grizzly bear that dragged a woman from her tent and killed her in Montana has been shot dead.
Leah Lokan, a 65-year-old nurse from California, was on a mountain biking trip with two friends when the 400lb (181kg) bear attacked their camp in the early hours of Tuesday.
Officials hunted the animal for three days, setting traps in the hope of luring it in.
Staff wearing night-vision goggles shot the bear as it raided a chicken coop.
They had laid a baited trap near the coop, about 2 miles (3 km) from Ovando, the small town where the attack happened.
Ms Lokan and her friends were camping behind the town's post office when she was attacked at around 4am.
