SILVER CLIFF, Wis., - Authorities in Wisconsin said they responded to a home on a report of a man being bitten by a black bear that refused to leave his yard.

Marinette County sheriff's deputies and Silver Cliff Rescue said the Silver Cliff man's wife called authorities Wednesday at 1:25 p.m. to report a black bear had bitten her husband and was circling their home, The (Iron Mountain, Mich.) Daily News reported Friday.

The bear was shot and killed by Deputy Daniel Beauchamp.

Gerre Ninnemann, the bite victim, had bite marks from his belt line up to the back of his head, the report said. He was taken by Silver Cliff Rescue to Bay Area Medical Center for treatment.

The bear's carcass was kept to be tested for rabies, authorities said.

Smith and Wesson makes this .50 caliber hand gun. The shop keeper told me it was “for bears.” Silly girl. Bears don’t have opposable thumbs.

His paws look small. We have bears in our village neighborhood. I was out walking between 9-10pm and kept telling myself “I am not afraid of bears”. Well, on the block that runs along the side of our property I saw the biggest wet bear prints crossing the road, right under a street light. I stopped dead in the road and panicked. I am very afraid of bears. I hightailed it home as fast as I could. Those were the biggest prints I had ever seen.

Sometimes you eat the bear... Sometimes the bear eats you...

In another story it said the wife had a shotgun but didn’t know how to load it. So she used it as a club. Brave woman but she’s doing it wrong.

“Gerre Ninnemann, the bite victim, had bite marks from his belt line up to the back of his head, the report said.”

So, lives in bear country -—Yup.

Doesn’t have guns loaded and ready for use when needed - - Yup.

Hasn’t trained family in use of guns - - Yup.

Idjit has Libtard last name which said idjit decided to live by - - Yup.

Conclusion: Ninny named Ninnemann acts like namesake and gnawed by large bodied predator.

Note: Idjit’s wife probably damaged a good gun while using it as a club. Idjit married to same.

Had she used the shotgun properly, it would probably only have enraged the bear. A Kalashnikov would have been a better choice of a weapon.

A bear that enters a yard and refuses to leave is no longer wild and probably addicted to raiding garbage cans of careless humans. Wild bears are almost never dangerous, but a fed bear is a dead bear.

She needs a little “Biden time” to learn the shotgun. Jill Biden, that is.

If you’d like to be on or off this Outdoors/Rural/wildlife/hunting/hiking/backpacking/National Parks/animals list please FR mail me. And ping me is you see articles of interest.

For a more complete narative Wife who can't load shotgun uses it to club bear attacking husband

Bear attacks husband, wife (so easy in rural stories, don't have to worry about genders/partners) grabs shotgun per VP Biden. She couldn't load the shotgun, VP Biden never suggested training-too NRA, so she took the iniative and smacked the yearling bear with the shotgun.

And when Mr. Ninnemann got home....guess who was in his easy chair? And he had already lost the remote.
