That was the early 1990’s. I killed a charging black bear at my house in Wasilla, AK in May 1991. I told a USAF friend whose wife was Thai and he offered me $250 for the gall bladder. I was told it was used to make an aphrodisiac. Asians have strange beliefs.
Seems like they also made some fake afro out of elk antler soup. They had to be poached when they were still in velvet and fairly soft. Like they need any help procreating...
