That there is Louis Kis, (former Flathead Valley head of F&G) getting his arse kicked by a grizzly bear.  There is supposed to be a release for the trap door hanging where it can be reached from inside the truck, it wasn't there.  Trap is supposed to be tied down to bed of truck, it wasn't there.  And all of this happened in front of about 30 outdoor writers that were in Kalispell for a convention.  Louis decided to show them a good ole grizzly bear release, well, he showed'em! Many of them captured the whole fiasco on their camera's. :chuckle:  There were not to many locals who didn't think the whole thing was pretty damn funny to be honest.  This happened I believe in approx 1988/89.

The hide and skull of that bear were at a friend of mine's Taxidermy shop and I saw it.  There were 3 357mag HP flattened against the skull and three had fully penetrated the brain and the bear had to be finished off with I believe 2 shotgun slugs, if I recall correctly.
I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
If I ageed with you, then we'd both be wrong.

One of the magazines did anarticle onm the whole thing, can't remember if it was Outdoor Life our Field and Stream.  Not sure which, but believe they are photos of him with his upside the bears head and the other officer getting out and standing over the bear with a shotgun finishing it off as it continues to chew on his leg after taking six in the melon at point blank.

.357? wonder what he carries now?  I saw something similar, can't remember where at the moment. The trap stuck a few feet over the end of the truck. Not secured, the officer did a full flip and landed on the bear as if in a saddle on it's neck. He put 6 rounds of .357 into it and got away unhurt.

Can anyone say Tiedowns? It's a real shame the bears paid for lack forethought.

Mike...I have to take the other approach...glad he did not get hurt too bad and luck would have it one less grizz that already required trapping.

dbllunger, no offense, but he got hurt due to his own arrogance and his attempt to put on a wild west show for the Western writers while they were in town.

Not the best day he has had at work I am guessing. Still beats sitting behind a desk though.

I understand your point, about a problem bear and all.   Still, I think it's a waste and a shame when an animal gets killed only because some Human was stupid.
