Two years ago we lost a pup and his Dad to the same bear .We could hear the rukus but my son was on the scene and witnessed it .You never know what a bayed bear will do .In the end 3 shots were fired .When we went back to camp and skun the bear we found 4 bullet holes .We can only sumise that that bear was shot at by one of the sports in an outfitters camp the last week of bait season .we checked with 2 outfitters that told us they both had sports that shot during the last week and the bears were never recovered ,Perhaps this may have been 1 of them .this bear had had 1 shot in the gut and during the skinning process it really stunk. Bad enough that we did not even feed any of it to the hounds.

one of my better dogs just got bit on the head by a bear that got spooked out of the tree. he didnt die. but he wouldnt have been able to be ran anymore. so we had to put him down.
