Great bear, I would have shot him with out a doubt!
I would rather be a conservative nut job, than a liberal with no nuts, and no job!

Skull should be salvagable.  Might be a few bones to glue together.

The fir was thick and shiny I'm going to tan it and probably just keep it in the corner. Just to small to rug but too pretty to get rid of.

Remember, bathrooms need rugs too!
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.

Like the rest of these guys said, a bear is a bear.  I've shot bears too big for three guys to move; and I've shot bears small enough to throw over my shoulder and hike several miles to the truck without breaking a sweat.  I bet that one is going to taste amazing!!!

You two should get together.  Between the two of you you might have enough for a pair of slippers. :)

The problem is AIR. Some are full of air, and GIANT! But you punched a hole in it and let it all out!

Been there......!  ;)
