Grizzly bears had never killed a person in Glacier National Park until the night of August 12, 1967. That's when everything changed for National Parks moving forward.
# The Night Two Young Women Were Killed by Different Bears in Glacier National Park
This episode dives into a tragic night in August 1967 when two nineteen-year-old women were killed by separate grizzly bears in two different locations within Glacier National Park, an event that sparked a major national conversation about how humans and bears can coexist. Josh and Chuck explore how decades of mismanagement—from feeding bears for entertainment to keeping them habituated to human food—created the perfect conditions for disaster, and how the park's casual attitude toward these massive predators stood in stark contrast to the real danger they posed.
