Killing such a magnificent animal while its standing still eating form a steel drum full of guts hardly seems to be “sporting,” no matter what you kill it with.
The least he could have done was walk up to the bear and prod it with the spear so it would stand before spearing it.
I agree. I have a soft spot for bears.
In reading the article it appears that they never retrieved the bear, as rain had washed away all blood and it was getting dark. Sad.
Hey I am definitely of the you can’t grill it til you kill it persuasion and from a family of hunters. This is not hunting its animal abuse. Beyond that its just hold muh beer stupid azz behavior.
