Quote:
A hunter killed a large Grizzly that attacked him.
Incorrect.

Quote:
He didn't know that the bear had recently killed and eaten a hiker.
Wrong.

Quote:
but he was able to operate the bolt and get the job done in time--barely.
Nice adventure story. Still wrong.

Quote:
The hiker was able to put a .38 slug into the bear immediately before his death.
Totally made up.

Quote:
the picture of a partially eaten hiker as testimony to what happens when inadequately armed human meets huge predatory Grizzly. Don't want to violate any board rules, so I'll leave it out for now, although the pictures have been on the net and some of you may have seen them.
I find it hard to believe that you could think that that body would have either been inside a grizzly, or been the leftovers of one.

In 2003 another photograph began to be circulated in conjunction with the pictures shown above, purportedly showing a human victim who was the bear's "last meal":

Although this is presumably a genuine photograph of human remains gnawed by one or more animals, it has nothing to do with the bear pictured above.
Do you have a source for that story?

Oh wait, you don't. Posted back on page 2:

is it the same as described here?

WARNING!!! link does show graphic images. WARNING!!!
From that page:


Bear size is mostly optical illusion, as you can see here.

I'd like to respectfully suggest that just because you got it in your email doesn't make it true, and that propogating urban legends is a poor use of anyone's time.
