Will bears Return to gut pile followup ? Pictures added after return
« on: October 20, 2013, 11:41:14 AM »
Here is a strange question and I almost feel stupid for asking it but while out yesterday I spooked a HUGE chocolate colored bear off a gut pile (whole carcass) and am wondering if this bear might return to the carcass especially this late in the season when they are trying to lay in the reserves?
I realise the the taste of the meat might be influenced by what it has been eating but the size of this bear would probably make book and the color phase is what I am after already have my 350 pound solid black.

Thanks for the quick reply and that is kinda what I was hoping to hear guess who will be sitting on a carcass every chance he gets next week also thank you to the hunter that didn't find his 3x3 last week especially if this brute shows back up

I have 5 days worth of video from a dead cow moose with the same bear on it each day. Seems they don't like it once the maggots get going, but fresh and afterwards when nothing but skin and bones, they love it!

What is the WDFW rule on baiting a bear with natural bait? anyone know?

Since he didn't place the bait there he's good.  If he had dumped a bucket of guts 50' from his treestand, it'd be a different story I believe.

Looks like a shooter.

Is that "mass" the gut pile?

To hunt and butcher an animal is to recognize that meat is not some abstract form of protein that springs into existence tightly wrapped in cellophane and styrofoam.
