A grizzly bear killed a hunter before being fatally shot Friday near the Boundary County, Idaho, limits, the latest in a series of deadly grizzly bear attacks in the Northwest.
Three men from Nevada were hunting bears in a remote area of Buckhorn Mountain near the Montana border when the grizzly attacked one of them and was shot and killed by a group member, authorities say.

They found a 16fter in Bastrop this summer. Very piney, much like E. Texas. No sympathy for gators here.
How they got W of San Antonio, swimming up the Colorado?
Or maybe surged up the Colorado by a hurricane?
Heh. That one around Bastrop was big, 14ft, but yeah. I’ve read reports circa 1840’s where soldiers and settlers would eat them when found.
You are one sick individual.
Well, shut my mouth. TPW is sympathetic:
“We’re looking at a few individuals involved but probably one individual we’re actually going to file charges on. It kind of depends on circumstances,” said Ensinger. “A couple of the guys are out of town working, were waiting on getting them back into town and I’ll decide what is appropriate.”
Reading some of the pussified comments regarding said hunter killed by bear, I am wondering if I am actually on Freerepublic or a fricken PETA site.
I don’t feel bad for the hunter (sorry for his family) and I sure as hell don’t feel bad for the “noble creature”.
The “noble creature” killed for food I am sure. Do these PETA idiots feel bad for the helpless faun chased down by the Grizzly bear?
Blaze away, pussies.
America exists, and you enjoy the fruits of it, as it does today because these sorts of top level predators were extirpated.
How true. I am an outdoorsman, with 50 years of experience hunting, camping and fishing in the wild (I live way out in the boondocks too) and once saw an animal flash across a trail in front of me into the brush. I thought it was a coyote, but when I looked at the tracks in the soft dirt, I saw that it was a mountain lion.
Score one for the Bears. We’ll call it a touchback.
Given what Lewis & Clark said, and grizzly behavior from then to now, I suspect your position will be rather difficult to sustain.
Good luck.
You’re going to need it.
