40 lbs of hamburger

Ahh - interesting.
How does it taste?

See, we don't have bears around here - not since 1835. There was ONE in 2006 but that's a different story.

I am just curious - I hear old stories about something called "bear bacon" - the old timers used to cure parts of the bear like a bacon - salted and dried/smoked.

Do you test it for trichina?

Sorry, for the stupid questions - don't want to hijack your thread.

Just got home it was a long week 2 bear were taken and my brother passed on a young one. The bear was completely processed at camp. Skun butchered,hide fleshed,fat rendered,skull boiled and teeth saved. Her head was shattered. If anyone ever doubts the killing power of a .50 cal round ball. I beg to differ. The bear went 10 yards maybe after the first shot. I spined her and she was dragging her back half. Thats when I walked up and finished her. It was a great hunt with close friends and my brother. I look forward to this week all year long. Thankyou for all of the kind words I have more pitures to post now that im home :hatsoff:

Trichinosis is killed by either cooking or freezing. I have shot quite a few bears and seen many more harvested but have only seen 1 with trichinosis! I hope this helps Silex. Nice looking bear Shine!!
