BEAR WITH ME ON THIS

These pictures are of a  man who works for the US Forest Service in Alaska, and his trophy  bear. 



He was deer  hunting last week when the large grizzly charged him from about 50 yards away. The guy emptied his  7mm Magnum semi-automatic rifle into the  bear and it dropped a few feet from him. The big bear was still alive so the hunter reloaded and shot it several times in the head.  

The bear was just  over one thousand six hundred pounds. It stood 12' 6’’ high at the shoulder, 14' to the  top of his head. It is the largest  grizzly bear ever recorded in the  world.

The Alaska Fish  and Wildlife Commission did not let him keep it as a  trophy, of course; but the bear will be  stuffed and mounted, and placed on display at the Anchorage airport to remind tourists of the risks involved in the wild.  

Analyzing contents  of the bears stomach, the Fish and Wildlife Commission established the bear had killed at least  two humans in the past 72  hours, including a hiker missing two days  prior to the bear's own death. 

Backtracking from where the bear had originated, the US Forest Service found the hiker's emptied 38-caliber pistol. Not far from the pistol was the  remains of the hiker. The other body has not been  found.

Although the hiker fired six shots and managed to hit the grizzly with four (that the Service ultimately retrieved, along with twelve 7mm slugs, inside the  bear's body), it only wounded the bear and probably angered it immensely.  

Think about this:

If you are an average size man, you would be level with the bear's navel when he stood upright. The bear would look you in the eye when it walked on all fours! To give additional perspective, this bear, standing on its hind legs, could walk up to an average single story house and look over the roof; or stand beside a two story house and look in the upper bedroom windows.
 
WOW!
