WHITEHORSE, Yukon (AP) - A grizzly bear has killed a woman and her 10-month-old baby in Canada.

The Yukon Coroner's Service says 37-year-old Valerie Theoret and infant Adele Roesholt died in the attack in the Yukon near the Northwest Territories border.

Coroner Heather Jones says Royal Canadian Mounted Police received a call Monday from trapper Gjermund Roesholt, who said he was returning from a walk when he was charged by a grizzly bear about 100 meters from a cabin he shared with his wife and infant daughter.

3. One can get killed anywhere...the mall, the street, in your home...

some places are more dangerous than others, but there are NO completely safe places.

4. That's sad.

I live in grizzly territory in the lower 48, I keep bear spray by the door and look outside before opening the door. Have baby griz nose prints on my front door. But I am also a retired outreach and education about nears and your safety worker for the gov't.

A bear is a bear is a bear, no matter which kind.
