Story on that 14' grizzly
Make sure you read the info before you look at the pictures....
The following (first two) pictures are of a guy who works for the
US Forest Service in Alaska and his trophy bear. He was out deer Hunting
last week when a large grizzly bear 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 he 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's the largest grizzly bear ever recorded in the world. Of
course, the
Alaska Fish and Wildlife Commission did not let him keep it as a
trophy, but the bear will be stuffed and mounted, and placed on
display at the Anchorage airport (to remind tourist's of the risks
involved when in the wild). Based on the contents of the bear's stomach,
the Fish and Wildlife Commission established the bear had killed at least
two humans in the past 72 hours. His last meal was the unlucky
nature buff in the third picture below. The US Forest Service,
backtracking
from where the bear had originated, found the hiker's 38-caliber pistol
emptied. 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 shots (they ultimately found four 38 caliber
slugs along with twelve 7mm slugs inside the bear's dead body), it only
wounded the bear and probably angered it. The bear killed the hiker an
estimated two days prior to the bear's own death by the gun of the Forest
Service worker. Think about this - If you are an average size man: You
would
be level with the bear's belly button when he stood upright, the bear
would look you in the eye when it walked on all fours! To give additional
perspective, consider that this particular bear, standing on its hind
legs,
could walk up to an average single story house and look
over The roof, or walk up to a two story house and look in the
bedroom windows.
