Warning!!! The Link is EXTREMELY GORY ....
(Meg, do not even think of looking)
The attached pictures are of a guy who works for the Forest Service in
Alaska. He was out deer hunting. A large 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 monster was still alive so he reloaded
and capped it in the head.
It was over one thousand six hundred pounds, 12'6" high at the shoulder,
14' to the top of his head. It's the largest Grizzly bear ever recorded
in the world. Of course, the game department did not let him keep it. It
will be mounted and put on display at the Anchorage airport (to remind
tourist's of the risks involved when in the wild).
Think about it. You would be level with the bears belly button when he
stood, he would look you in the eye when walking! This bear on its hind
legs could walk up to the average single story house and look over the
roof at eye level.
The bear had killed 2 other people. His last meal was the poor fellow on
a nature hike. See Picture #3. Ouch. The Forest Service found his
38-caliber emptied. He shot 6-times and hit the grizzly 4 (they found
seven 7mm slugs and four 38 caliber slugs in him) but obviously only
wounded him since that encounter was estimated to be 3 days prior to the
bears death.
The 7mm has about 10 times the energy of a .44 mag pistol and the .38 is
a pop-gun compared to the .44. Fear is good.
Look what this Bear did to this Guy ....
