How do you drag a 700 pound bear to your truck? Could be a distance.
“How do you drag a 700 pound bear to your truck?”
You use a chainsaw to cut a trial so you can bring in your tractor, or you quarter it where it dropped and haul pieces out in separate trips.
My buddy and I tried to drag a 360 pound boar out of the woods. We were only able to drag it 10’ then we got a tractor as described above.
You gut it and drop several hundred pounds to start with. Then You find out who your real friends are when they come out to help you or they don’t.
Or get a Dog Sled Team and roll the Bear on it’s back, hitch up and start mushing.
Suburban tract housing now exists on what was once farmland Not long ago a bear broke into the kitchen of one of these homes and had dinner. A neighbor related a story that he grew up in the area when farms were still there. Bears would come to eat crops or fruit from commercial trees. The farmers would just shoot them and feed whatever meat they didn’t use to their pigs. The bear population has increased greatly since the farmers left and the government protects the well being of bears more than children.
