Dober, glad you chimed in cause you've seen and shot a schittload more bears in Mt. than me...
I have my own theory on the Blondes and why they are so small...mainly because they are so visible that hunters, and more importantly other bears, can spot them, and kill them...There is nothing a bear is more scared of than another bear.
I got that one blonde I keep posting the pic of that squared 6'1" and that is the biggest one Ive ever seen.Anywhere.
