Family and friends will say their final goodbyes today (Friday) to a teacher killed in a brutal wolf attack.

Candice Berner, 32, of Slippery Rock was killed one week after arriving in Alaska to teach special education.

She was jogging in the small town of Chignik Lake when the wolves attacked and killed her.

Earlier this week, the wolves suspected of killing Candice were shot via helicopter.

On Thursday, the Alaska Department of Health announced they did not have rabies.

It is extremely rare for healthy wolves to attack people.
