And yet again, another grizzly shot while charging hunter in Idaho

Happened in Caribou-Targhee national forest near Island Park:

Hunter shoots grizzly bear in self-defense on the Caribou-Targhee National Forest

On the evening of Oct. 26, a hunter shot and killed a sow grizzly bear in self defense after it charged the man while he was hunting for elk north of Kilgore near Mule Meadows in the Caribou-Targhee National Forest.

Yikes


I had a grizzly get within 60 yards of me while ell hunting in 2021. Big critters.

Fortunately, after I made myself known to him, he turned and just walked away peacefully.

Bunch more need shot. Glad the hunter was okay.

Small progress.

Given the way ol' 399 is being memorialized in the press, surely involuntary bearslaughter charges will follow...

This is so unfortunate, how will bear numbers ever recover if people keep shooting them?!

On the brink of extinction...

Every time I read these articles I feel for the hunter, they’re always so specific on where the attack occurred. They just blew up this guy’s elk spot!

Just because someone was there doesn’t mean it’s a good spot
