Great bear, not a bad way to start off the spring.

NICE bear! Thanks for sharing!

thanks fellas, this bear is a spitting image of the bear I took in the exact same "glade" 2 years ago.. looks like his son, same white star on his chest.. the 05 spring bear was a foot longer and a 100lbs heavier.

I'm interested to see what this one ages at. I have to check him in in the next 10 days..Fish and Game will take a tooth sample ..the 05 bear was aged at 14-16.. I think this bear is probably half that age...
