Just saw this on my newsfeed on Facebook. Its massive but what do you guys think real or fake? These two gents were calling elk in the Saddle Hills south of Woking , Alberta when this big guy slipped in on the caller. The Shooter spotted the bear about 8 yards from the caller and dropped him with 5 shots out of his 338 Win Mag.. Farmers in the area knew about the bear but weren’t able to track after it had killed 3 horses, 5 cows, 13 sheep and a pen full of chickens on several different homesteads in the area. Fish and wildlife had bear traps set up in the area but noticed on surveillance video that whenever he would enter a trap, his hump would hit the top of the culvert trap slowing him enough that the trap door would whack him on the head before he was all the way in the rear. Check out the scar tissue on his face….. Bear weighed in just under 1300 pounds and would have stood 11 ¾ feet tall on its hind legs….. https://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash3/522506_10152333675015215_459668280_n.jpg
I'm gonna say real picture. Misleading angle and a fabricated story. Sent from my ADR6350 using Tapatalk 2
Misleading camera angle for sure, its now what half the hunting industry does when they shoot a buck to make their antlers look huge...annoying to see things like this and people producing pictures like these as if they were alot better than someone else who shot something that wasn't as big or just trying be the "cooler" guy for shooting something so big.
