Look at the claws on this bear

[JC]

This is an E-Mail I got sent the other day. Don't know if it is real. But It's a big bear!

Subject: Fw: Cusick, WA - Those are some claws.









This picture was taken north of Spokane  about 50+ miles. Flowery Trail runs over the mountain from Cusick to Chewelah.





HOLY COW.....look at those claws.
   
   
This picture is just off the  Flowery Trail Road  ...out of Cusick.
   
Was photographing elk during that cold snap last week and happened on to this spike elk carcass.
                          There wasn't much left .... but based on what there were for tracks a bear had just left it.
                          Didn't see the bear so we put a remote trail cam up to see what exactly was feeding on it.
   
   
                          50 minutes later this is what showed up.. Look at the claws on this bugger!!
                          Can't say I've seen too many with that much claw in the fall.

    Wow!  For those of you that don't know Flowery Trail is the road the goes to the Ski Hill, 49 degrees North Exciting!  He's definetly Griz!! 
   
    For those of you that do know the area, you might want to be careful!  ;-)

crazy pic don't know if it is 100% real or not some of the guys on here can see if it has been photoshopped or not but i have seen some claws up close and personal and know they are huge for sure

That pic is bogus the way I heard it the pic was taken in canada by a hunting guide that placed a trail camera on a elk kill. Funny how these things change locations. check on predatormasters forums the story is there.

It was actually posted on here too if I am not mistaken.

I don't know of many folks who copywrite their trail cam pics.

FYI: You can google his name up. It may shed some light on the subject.

A quick Inet search suggested to me that this is a Pic from a guy who worked on the PBS Nature Series "The Good, the Bad, and the Grizzly", Gordon Hoffman was a photographer on the series, I bet it is from his Gallery...

Sorry JC but thats a grizz.  While there could be grizz up on the Little Pend Oreille NWR I'm guessing that this photo was not shot up there.
