I just started this one for the bears, I have fox, wolf, moose, caribou and a whole assortment of others critter photos here in Alaska taken over the years. Maybe I can, or someone else start one for the different versions of critters, or just a "Critter Thread" for all of the stuff that everyone else has too... |

I got hundreds of them from my job when I work the boats in Prudhoe Bay area. We have them swim in from the ice pack.
I started a thread on them and got a lot of positive responses for it, there were a few clueless ones that kept bantering on and on about my view... But you can go to the thread and read though it to make up your own mind and see the photos or go to my web page to see some of the different critters there too.

It's called hunting. It's something we do here in Alaska. Deal with it.

You are suppose to be hunting the opposite sex, not some defenceless animal!
on a more serious note. Is the reason why so many females in Alaska because all the males shot them?

So would you rather see the photos of where the bears kill people? Not a pretty picture.
Most of the city folks that eat meat they get from the grocery store and have no idea of how it got in those cute little plastic packs in the meat section... It comes from a Slaughter house which is even more "Inhumane" by your standards.
Taking an animal in the wild that has lived without fences and will die a horrible death at the hands of some other animal later on is much more acceptable by those that live this lifestyle. A bullet is quite quick by comparison verses being ripped apart by another preditor... and bears eat bears too...
People whom live in the city have no concept of what transpires in the real world, and that is pretty sad. They think of wolves as very cute, when in fact they are a very efficient killer of other animals that don't die very fast either, it may take days to track a moose to where it falls down and dies from having it's legs ripped open to bleed or a caribou having to walk on it's intestines after having it's stomach ripped open...
The "real" Grizzly Adams doesn't really walk around and talk with the animals.... he eats them...
(Mod, if you think the photo is to graphic, please remove it, but it is what bears and other animals do in the real world to each other and people)
