240kg Big Black Bear Killed With Bare Hands

A hunter, who suffered a severe bear attack and had two broken arms and wounds to his face, jaw, stomach and legs, killed the animal with his bare hands in Minnesota, USA.

The unnamed victim was hunting in the forest when he suddenly noticed an enormous black bear and shot it with a bow and arrow.

The unnamed victim together with his fellows was hunting in the forest when he suddenly noticed an enormous black bear and shot it with a bow and arrow. After several hours of tracking the bear the hunters found the wounded animal lying on the ground.

When they tried to get closer, it suddenly charged and pounced on the victim. As the 240kg predator clawed and chewed the man’s arm, he started screaming and fatally stabbed the bear at least 20 times with a hunting knife.

One of the victim’s friends led the mauled man out of the woods and he was later flown to a local hospital. The hunter, who suffered two broken arms and wounds to his face, jaw, stomach and legs, is now in a stable condition, while the black bear was later dragged out of the woodland by the remaining 10 hunters.

The American black bear is a medium-sized bear native to North America. It is the continent’s smallest and most widely distributed bear species. They typically live in largely forested areas, but do leave forests in search of food. Males tend to weigh between 60 to 160 kg, but some can be as large as 270kg.
