The young folk singer was hiking alone on Tuesday when two coyotes attacked her. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police received a 911 call to report that a hiker was being attacked by two coyotes, when they arrived at the scene they found Ms. Mitchell badly injured and shot one of the coyotes at the scene.
Ms. Mitchell was rushed to Sacred Heart Hospital in Cheticamp to treat the bites which covered her body. She was then later airlifted to the Queen Elizabeth II Health Sciences Centre in Halifax but died of her injuries on Wednesday morning.
Ms. Mitchell was part way through a tour of the East Coast of Canada.
Park rangers are still hunting for the second coyote which carried out the attack.
