Wolves Who Killed Alaska Teacher Killed
At least 4 wolves are believed to have killed teacher Candace Berner.   (?vmaidens)

Two of the 4 wolves who killed a teacher in Alaska have been tracked down and shot to death by wildlife officials. Residents of Chignik Lake last week found the body of jogger Candice Berner, 32, surrounded by wolf tracks, and an autopsy confirmed she had been killed by the animals in the first such attack in modern times. Snow stymied earlier efforts to track the wolves, who matched the description of animals seen in the area, reports AP.
