Love the stripe, that's a really sweet bear!!! Really great story...your heart was totally into it! Very motivational.

Definitely gotta feel very bad for her. But we can see the funny side to. Funny aside - that is a very dangerous bear. Her voice could almost call it in. I suppose the kayak looks like a big ice chest or he is used to finding salmon in them.

There are boars all over Hawaii!!! The jungle is slick thick stuff so keep your grip every step and be ready to duck alot of branches. :-) There are also tons of goats, good eating.

The critters will devour it down to the bone and there will be nothing left.

You will! We haven't heard the last yet. Sorry about your bear. Tough one for sure. You worked very hard for it!!! If that bear is semi-alive...it was definitely aware you were coming and it could have been nuts. Looking for vultures is a good idea

That bites :-( Tough creatures, for sure. If he was still alive and you got on him with not much energy left, and he felt cornered, it could have been a situation requiring very quick reflexes, that is for sure! I've never seen just heard, that wounded bears like to sleep facing the direction you're trailing them. Pretty smart

I think Kidso would have reached out and gave it a hug, and a little kiss on the cheek. And then... Arrow it LOL

Good luck!!! Hope you find it

Good luck finding your bear Capoeirajosh! Try calling this number 623-236-7201. It's a 24/7 Game and Fish line I believe. It is for reporting nuissance bears or injured animals. I called it this morning when it was 5am, and I knew the Game and Fish office was not open, and found the number by calling Op Game Thief and hearing this separate number on the recording. I saw a javelina get hit by a car, and was hoping I could tag it. But they said you have the be the driver that hits the javelina to tag it. Someone told me it's possible the driver of the car could have transferred their right to me, but by that point it was already too late and I didn't have a way to get ahold of him so I just had to let it go. But perhaps they would be able to advise you on the right direction on how to proceed. But also if they tell you, you can't pursue it, make sure they have the legal authority to tell you that and are following some statute, and aren't just telling you that b/c they have no idea and avoiding their own personal liability for telling you something they're not sure of. If it's the latter it is just wasting your time. Or they may tell you don't call that number for this specific purpose. If so, post it here so no one else calls it. :-) Thanks. But to me at this point it at least falls under the general category "injured animal" :-) So maybe they would know what legally you might be allowed to do and would tell you something helpful other than "Don't do anything" (read politically correct! Freeze and let's not do anything and just let the situation fester! LOL) If you go out tracking it, as long as it doesn't rain or hail you should still hopefully have a decent blood trail. Lonne

Is it the main road that goes from Camp Wood to Bagdad? If yes, I was on it a couple years ago, and it was pretty necessary to have a 4WD. If not the same road, ignore me

Sweet pics!

Beautiful bear!!!

Big Browns has some real glassing talent, that's for sure

Same here. Politician, or billionare, unlike the rest of us, whatever you want to call him, at least he is saying it like it is on some things...how can you not love the truth behind the following statement: "We’re so politically correct that we can’t move anymore." - Trump http://www.breitbart.com/video/2015/07/18/trump-common-core-way-of-taking-care-of-the-people-who-dont-give-a-dang-about-ed/

WOW

And our tax dollars funding it all. Ridiculous...

Now that is really funny. Had to Google it (my 2nd brain) to get it...

Nice job !!! Nice bear!!!

I have some Iranian friends that are fantastic people, so this is nothing against them. One jumps from planes, loves Israelis (defeats the incorrect stereotype), and another is a brilliant programmer. They're awesome and they love America. But why are we signing onto a deal with a leadership that hates Americans? http://www.cnn.com/2015/07/28/politics/iran-ayatollah-khamenei-twitter-obama-image/index.html I'm not a big fan of Obama, but enough said, he's President of the U.S. and dumb to sign onto this deal. Let's not forget the Iran Hostage crisis, Marines & Beirut, Hezbollah, the list goes on. This government killed and wants to kill plenty of our American people and Israelis who have already been at the hand of the Holocaust and has no shame in mentioning their hate for either. I'm with others that say we need to restore America to Greatness. And yes, you can ask why are we having this discussion here and let me have it (in other words lighten up in your response and take a chill pill, this is simply a discussion). LOL. But remember, this is the campfire, pull up a seat, if you drink grab a beer, and voice your mind. No discussion barred. This is the dumbest thing ever, we shouldn't cater to the government of Iran, and we should reject this deal outright. Get someone in office that knows what they are doing and quit trying to take our country into an abyss by making dumb deals like this when there are much more important things we need to focus on. I don't care if you are Democrat or Republican, call your Congressman and tell him to reject this deal. It's ridiculous and I can't even believe it got to the table We've got alot of work to restore this country to greatness so let's start now. If trying to make a deal with Iran doesn't tell us that, I don't know what does.

Those are all some pretty *big* bears

Oh, and this work more hours junk is a bunch of junk, for all Americans. For some it's good they can further their small or bigger business. Maybe it is good for all of us economy wise, but it sure doesn't help us to keep tabs on what's going on in the world and/or our country when we are busy making stuff happen at the office. Ie., wag the dag For the general public, the more hours we work, the more of a distraction it is of what's going on in the world and what we need to be concerned our kids our growing up with. If we are working all the time it's hard to keep track of that stuff for our kids and their future.

Korwin's books, if I recall, have some interesting info on this also. Hope it goes well

Friend of mine told me they encountered leeches in Arizona. I'll refrain mentioning the location to keep it wilderness, but it was somewhere near Payson not Saguaro. Are there any leeches in Arizona? Or just the flatworms like above? Or anything similar to leeches?

Super awesome pics
