This looks lame -- how about retreat to your house, or fire a warning shot. Looks like he waits to shoot until the bear has turned away.

Yeah, I don’t know what the backstory is but does not look like a good shoot.

I wonder if the Alaska Department of Fish and Game has seen that video yet. I’ll also note that he has comments turned off on his video.

I was not sure of the location, and unless there are some other circumstances I don't understand, this does not look like a valid DLP shoot.

The bar for resident DLPs is pretty location dependent. Something that will get you busted in Juneau won't turn an eye in King Cove if anyone even bothers to report it.

Wolves, bears, wild pigs. monkeys, pythons, iguanas - oh my!

Nothing exciting here except that a skunk let loose under the bedroom window a few days ago. Made it hard to sleep. Had to drive carefully to avoid a deer crossing the road the other night.
