WOLF ATTACK

Campground in Banff National Park reopens after wolf attack

A campground in Banff National Park where a wolf attacked a man in a tent last week has reopened to the public.

Parks Canada says it found the wolf about a kilometre away from the Ramparts Creek campground and killed the animal.

DNA tests have been completed and confirm it was the same animal involved in the Friday attack.

Officials say the wolf was in poor condition and nearing the end of its natural life span.
