The emaciated man from Russias remote Republic of Tuva was preserved as tin-can food to eat later by a brown bear, say local reports in the region. A group of local hunters found Alexander after their dogs refused to leave the area of the den. Their persistent barking pushed the hunters to check inside the lair, where they found a barely-alive man. He was rushed to the local hospital and has been diagnosed with a broken spine and severe emaciation. Alexander remembers his first name but not his age, and was reportedly in the den for around one month, drinking urine to survive.
He is now in the intensive care with multiple injuries and rotting skin. He can move his arms, local hospital doctors said.
He managed to explain that he was attacked and dragged inside the den when he broke his spine. The attack happened approximately a month ago, Alexander said. The bear preserved me as food for later, he explained.

Are you serious? Is that a real story?
You can make urine for a month without drinking additional water?

Stuned Beber PING !!!
The drinking urine part of the story doesn’t make sense. How would the man get the bear urine? I presume the bear just goes on the floor of the cave and doesn’t urinate over the guy’s face.
It didn’t say he was drinking his own urine.
“It didnt say he was drinking his own urine.”
Well, that makes all the difference. I would suggest that he may have had some kind of access to water contaminated by bear urine but not enough to kill him.
Serious is being in a Room full of rocking chairs, with 20 long tail cats...
Do not trust bears.
“Bear urine. Why do you think the bear kept him around?...”
I can barely stomach that mental image.
Bears repeating...
};^P>
Bears have buried moose carcasses to eat later.
Good point. I did not know that.
Agreed ... while the picture is indeed disturbing, the narrative is short on facts.
“the bear just goes on the floor of the cave and doesnt urinate over the guys face”
It’s Russia. Golden showers.
