99 of 100 bears polled say clowns taste funny. I think JWG would fall in the 1% that don't taste funny. grin



Here's one I recalled from a few years back down here in SE AK:

Hunter Slain, Partly Devoured by Grizzly
November 08, 1988|United Press International

SITKA, Alaska � A 700-pound grizzly bear killed a hunter and devoured part of his body but was tracked down and destroyed the next day, state officials said Monday.

Harley Sievenpiper Jr., 40, of Juneau, was attacked Friday after he left two hunting companions on Baranof Island in southeast Alaska. Rollin Young, an Alaska Fish and Wildlife Protection officer, said Sievenpiper may have attracted the bear inadvertently while using a deer call.

A six-man search party from Sitka and Port Alexander found the mature grizzly with Sievenpiper's partly devoured remains Saturday. The animal charged and was shot to death, Young said."

You need to have your guard on when calling deer on the ABC Islands. Alway check your backside. I've called a few in. Also why I don't do a 223 AI for deer.
