A friend of mine e-mailed me some pics of a bear killed here in Illinois. I guess it was somewhere around Decatur. A guy was combing his corn when his combine fell into a hole and got stuck. When he got out to check the hole out, a big black paw came out at him. They called the game warden and was instructed to kill it. It weighed almost 300 pounds. The hole evidently was the bear's den. Too bad they had to kill it, I'd love to see bears here! I'll see if my wife will post the pics when she gets home.
