Bear Age
« on: December 24, 2021, 04:54:33 PM »
Just thought I would pass on that it looks like this year's spring bear ages are up.   At least mine was.   Killed on May 21st.  10 year old sow.

My results are still pending. Harvested June 14th. I did get the rug back this week though. That’s one of my teenagers in the foreground.

My spring bear was aged at 4 years.  More than I expected.  :dunno:    Saved the lower jaw of my deer hoping to get it aged.

Just got mine back too from last year, 7 year old boar.  So far I’ve aged 3 of them, 4, 7 and 14 years old.

No idea..the shooter had a full mount done. Supposedly , skull measurements made it #3 in the state.

If I saw the top bear in that second pic, I would have failed the "bear ID test." That hump is big and deceiving.
