We got our first black bear back on August 30th at about 7am while he was eating breakfast.  He's all black except a white patch on his chest and a big ol'pumpkin head too.  Such an awesome first bear to have gotten, might be a personal best for us for a while.  We took almost the whole bear with us too, we were fortunate enough to be fairly close to our car and didn't mind taking trips. I'm still rendering down the fat and grinding up some meat its just awesome to have a deep freezer full of delicious meat!

Well we were a bit too excited to get a nose to tail measurement.  The skull measures 11.25 by 7 scoring an 18.25 on the Boone and Crockett.

That is a stud bear!  If you're looking for recipes I think Hank Shaw's chorizo recipe works well w/ bear meat (you can reduce the pork fat by a lot and salt by a little).  So does breakfast sausage.
Enjoy!
