BE CAREFUL THE PICTURES ARE VERY GRUESOME!!!
Don't be eating when you look at this.* It's pretty gruesome!
The following pictures are of a guy who works for the Forest
Service in Alaska. 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 monster was still
alive so he reloaded and capped it in the head. It was over one thousand six
hundred pounds, 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 game department did not let him keep it.
It will be mounted and put on display at the Anchorage airport (to
remind tourist's of the risks involved when in the wild).
Think about it. You would be level with the bears belly button when
he stood, he would look you in the eye when walking! This bear on its
hind legs could walk up to the average single story house and look over the
roof at eye level.* The bear had killed 2 other people.
His last meal was the poor fellow on a nature hike. The Forest
Service found his 38-caliber emptied. He shot 6-times and hit the grizzly
4(they
found seven 7mm slugs and four 38caliber slugs in him) but obviously only
wounded him since it was estimated to be 3 days prior to the bears death by
the Forest Service man.
