Recovering a BIG Black Bear
In PA, we have to take our bear to the check station whole. We can gut them, but there's no quartering. They have to arrive at the check station whole.
Also, every year in PA, there are several 700+ pounders and 800+ pounders are taken from time to time.
I've dragged a 150lb bear up a mountain and we just got a 300lb bear last week on level ground and both were a real pain to get out of the woods.
How do you drag out a 500-800lb bear?
