I agree, younger bear. If you don't have a rug, shoot it! If you have one, let him grow up some more. I saw a similar sized bear a month ago up by Mount Bonaparte when I was there. He was sniffing around my cabin lot.

Yup, nice first tag bear. Then get picky! :twocents:

Small bear for sure, I would bet 100-120lbs.
