the dust... old pic from the basement, MUCH cleaner now!
this is what you get when you listen to your buddy yelling "It's bigger than the other one! shoot it! shoot it!"
sure did look bigger in the scope! still had milk teeth...
and probably WAS bigger than the other one... they were siblings. another buddy had shot a sow the night before not knowing she had cubs. when they went in the brush to get her out as it got dark, they heard more bears, so backed out til the next morning. these two cubs would never have survived, but it wasnt my intention to shoot one!
he is pretty, though! i wanted to do a bath mat, but my taxi convinced me a full body would be better. when i picked it up, he said if i ever wanted to sell it, he had 3 or 4 people that saw it and wanted it!
