I was just amazed at how easy the bear manhandled that thing into the woods.

Here's two more worth watching--one is a bear who takes a much larger moose. The second is a grizzly sow with cubs taking on a caribou!


I left it better than I found it...did you?
I hunt animals because veggies are too easy to stalk.

All three of those were brutal but cool.  I'm surprised the cow moose let the bear walk off with it while screaming.  Makes me wonder if she would have if those people hadn't been there.

I only saw two, but that black bear and moose one was cool enough for me to figure a way to save YT videos. I only wish the sound quality was better, and louder. :chuckle:

It's amazing how strong those things are. We are the nerds of the animal kingdom, we are smart enough to go to the moon but as far as strength goes we aren't squat. :chuckle:

Just a snap shot on these guys power, always have respected and appreciated what they can do.  I'll see if I can find it, but had a clip of a Big Browine basically slapping a big Bull Moose with its paw, dropping the moose like a prize fighter.

Yep, it was pretty good.
I doubt most people even have a clue as to how many calves/fawns that black bears take every year. I know it is alot more than most bios know or admit.

I knew there was a reason I had a skid mark in my waders everyday I was fishing the Situk last year!  :chuckle:
