it might be wise to think, that just maybe...a bear has found it, and just maybe a person would be wise, to approach the carcass as if there was a bear on it.

maybe they did.....but going off what info is out there.....it sounds kind of like a cluster......its just a discussion...…..bob


Bob, I agree 100% and I said as much a few pages back. The information I've heard, scant as it is, seemed to indicate that the bears weren't on the carcass when the hunters arrived, but charged them as they were dragging it out of cover with the horses. Which would definitely make it a cluster.

It might also explain why the horse was still there at all.

the only real difference between a good tracker and a bad tracker, is observation. all the same data is present for both. The rest, is understanding what you're seeing.
