Default Grizzly Bear encounter

I was out on Saturday doing some field work before the snow gets to deep in the higher elevation and came across this buddy chowing down on a dead moose! Glad I didn't meet him while I was walking in the bush doing some site survey's.....Filling his belly before he goes for a long winter nap!

Kinda caught him off guard by coming up this Forest Service Road!

WOW nice pics.
Looks like a young one, but then again, even a pissed off young one could become a nightmare very quickly.
BTW what is he eating?

You can get better pics if you throw candy bars on your windshield.
John Candy taught me that.

I wouldn't have gotten out of the truck either.

I've been lucky, I've only run across black bear and they ran away from me. Thank gawd...
