I warn you.

These pictures are graphic. And the third one is horrible.
Let me say again....the first two, are amazing pictures size wise, but the third one is horrible.

Here's the text of the message I just got:

He was out deer hunting. A large...really large world record Grizzly charged him from about 50 yards away. The guy unloaded a 7mm Mag Semi-auto into the bear and it dropped a few feet from him. The thing was still alive so he reloaded and capped it in the head. Over one thousand six hundred pounds, 12'6" high at the shoulder. It's a world record. The bear had killed a couple of other people. Of course, the game department did not let him keep it. Think about it. This thing on it's hind legs could walk up to the average single story house and could look on the roof at eye level.

My uncle lived in Alaska for a while and Killed a 8 ft 6 " Kodiac in the 80s...and said that he was sure some of the scratches on the trees where up to 12 feet....but this bear itself stood at 12 feet. Unbelievable. Sad the poor thing started killed people and had to be put down.

That bear-pic has been posted before. And to my knowledge, the guy who got eaten in the third pic was eaten by a pack of wild dogs, not bear.
