Since wdfw has the tooth look up online what's the oldest bear you've killed in Washington?
Mine is an 11 year old female shot back in 08.

2004 sow with my muzzy. It was 18.5 years old. Beautiful hide. I was very surprised at how old it was. Did my research and discovered that blackies can live to the age of 25 in the wild!

That's really cool, I just looked mine up and it was only 3 years old. I really thought it would be older because it was pretty big.
