I thought up there it's just skull and cape that's taken???

Typically that is so with brown bears, though interior bears are still eaten a fair amount by residents. There is no meat salvage requirements for brown bears. Black bears, on the other hand, have to be salvaged in most areas in the spring and it is optional in the fall. I have eaten both species in spring n fall and found them good eating.

A 10 ft bear isn't as common as folks think. Holy smokes. That's big.

No measurements yet. Hide is being prepped. Looks to be an old monarch.

Only had one front canine left!
that's a big old skull

Where does your uncle guide?  Name of outfit?
He asked, Do you ever give a short simple answer?  I replied, "Nope."

When I was packing and guiding hunters in ID and MT,  it was my life's goal to be a brown bear guide.   You ever elk hunt Kodiak?
