1600 Lb Bear
i recieved an email from my buddy..i couldnt believe what i read
the email:
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 stillalive so he reloaded and capped it in the head.
It was over 1,600 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 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 38
caliber 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.
i dunno if youve seen it on the net, but i was shocked...
even when i saw these
