Poena Posted April 25, 2003 Posted April 25, 2003 I do not know if anyone else has seen this or if its posted but I thought it was interesting anyway: The following pictures are of a guy who works for the forest Service in Alaska. (note I have all three images but the last is quite graphic. Ill only post it on request) He was out deer hunting. A large world record Grizzly charged him from about 50 yards away. The guy unloaded a 7mm Mag Semi-auto into the bear and it dropped a few feet from him. The thing was still alive so he reloaded and capped it in the head. It was over one thousand six hundred pounds,and 12' 6" high at the shoulder. It's a world record. The bear had killed a couple of other people. Of course, the game department did not let him keep it. Think about it. This thing on its hind legs could walk up to the average single story house and could look on the roof at eye level. Also his last meal was human.

blike Posted April 25, 2003 Posted April 25, 2003 Ah! Its just a picture of the same bear, except with the guy hodling up the bear's paw, about twice the size of his head.

blike Posted April 25, 2003 Posted April 25, 2003 LOL, had to host it yourself. You should convert to jpg, thats like 120k bmp
GravIt0n Posted April 25, 2003 Posted April 25, 2003 I thought it was odd that a Polar bear weighing 2200lbs was only 12 feet from nose to tail.. Seems this bear story was a bogus claim. http://washingtontimes.com/sports/20030119-17064007.htm
the GardenGnome Posted April 25, 2003 Posted April 25, 2003 Imagin having that bear's head on your wall. And you should of seen the one that got away.
blike Posted April 25, 2003 Posted April 25, 2003 Snopes has the real story as... "The bear pictured above was killed in November 2001 by a hunter (not a Forest Service employee) who came across it while he was deer-hunting in Alaska. As he described the event on the message board at HuntingNet.com: My partner and I ran into the unexpected . . . "BIG ARSE URSUS"! The bear was shot 10 yards away (no zeros missing in that figure my friends) in the head with a .338 Remington Winnie, using 250 grain Nosler handloads, followed up with two shots to the vitals. A very quick clean death. We were working up a creek, headed for the mountains to hunt blacktail. He was coming down the creek, hunting for the last of the spawning Coho in the creek. We initially spotted him from 40 yds off. As a matter of fact we were glassing the bear over the high brush just behind the bear when we spotted him. "
Poena Posted April 26, 2003 Author Posted April 26, 2003 Sure I have the images saved at work. One was the paw that youve posted but the last one was of his...hm..last meal. Its very graphic, but I will post it tomarrow for you all to see, when I get back in work ;D

Guest bman Posted May 22, 2003 Posted May 22, 2003 Where's the last picture. I can find the pictures of the paw and the bear on other sites. But I can't find anything about the "last meal." Where did the last meal picture come from?
Guest swimmerchick Posted May 26, 2003 Posted May 26, 2003 i want to see the picture of the human that the worl record bear ate
Sayonara Posted May 26, 2003 Posted May 26, 2003 Next time you might want to be careful what you wish for. The image has been deleted from the other thread as it was a tad too gratuitous for public display methinks.
