What does it take to kill a grizzly?

Once again, animals that have been easily killed with sharp sticks also somehow require the largest caliber guns around to kill.

While the true practicing indigenous people are not against killing bears they have a special ritual when they do kill one. They will not kill a fish eating bear but instead a fall berry fed bear….

Could be two separate thoughts smashed together here that I’m misinterpreting what you mean, but I’m 99.9% sure the reason they don’t kill a fish eating bear, but will kill a fall berry fed bear, is not a spiritual one.
(One tastes like shit, the other is pretty tasty)

Either way, devils aadvocate here, Alaska bears must be weaker than guided Yukon bears. Many big bears get taken each year by 223, 243, 22-250 or similar all over rural Alaska.
