(I changed the name and im posting some of the freak animals im finding) No pr0n please. eek:
Ok before you go flipping out on thinking this isn't real take a look at the photos first. I can't show you all of them because some of them are just too graphic for this site but I can show you the hunter that took it down.

Some of you, I am sure, have seen this so spare me the "old news bs" because I want others to see it that haven't here.

I was getting a radiator at an autoparts store when I was looking around at all the hot chicks on the walls I came across this picture.

Upon further research I found these and others.

The big grizzly measured 10' 6" from nose to tail and weighed in at an estimated 1,000 to 1,200 pounds — unusually large for the vicinity, says the USDA Forest Service, but not quite a world record, nor even an Alaskan record. It was killed on October 14, 2001 by U.S. Air Force Airman Theodore Winnen on Hinchinbrook Island, Prince William Sound. The photos were taken by his hunting partner, Staff Sgt. James Urban. Both were stationed at Eielson Air Force Base near Fairbanks at the time.

Though the bear was within 10 yards of the hunters' position and moving towards them when he fired the first shot, Winnen says, it did not charge them. "I don't know if the wind was in our favor or what," he told the Anchorage Daily News. "We were dressed in camouflage. He might not have seen us." Winnen's weapon was a 338-caliber Winchester Magnum, not a 7mm semi-automatic as alleged. The first bullet pierced the bear's brain but left it standing; five more in the chest finally brought it down.


Apparently the story of this airman from Alaska named Ted is Urban Legend or myth until Ted came forward.

Where I live there are few grizzlys but there are some. I have mostly blackbears where I live. But it's well known to hunters that know about bears that some older grizzlys will feed on humans if hungry enough. Although most bears are scared of humans and feel threaten by them larger grizzs will not back down at all and sometimes will see a human as a "good meal".

Some people dismiss that as urban legend. I don't. I've seen animals where I live that 2 times the size they are supposed to be. Like moose you could drive a small car under.
