Alaskan woodsman killed by...something?
« on: January 03, 2005, 11:23:53 AM »
If Alaskan woodsman and predator scientist Bart Schleyer wasn't killed by a Yukon Grizzly, then what did kill him?

Bear ate woodsman, but did it kill him?
MYSTERY: Bart Schleyer's remains found in scat; was he attacked or scavenged?

If the bear came from behind, broke his neck, and then dragged him off to bury him, that might explain a lot.  There would be little blood on anything at all.  If the bear came back a few days latter the body would not bleed as if alive soaking the clothes.

I missed that story.

Interesting because I picked up a new bear call and on the package it said you need to have a 360 degree vision because it calls in all predators looking for an easy meal.  So my point is you need two hunters back to back when the call is used.  It also says they come running in very fast to be the first inline to eat too.  Wether it came in quietly or charged in either way he was caught off guard I think anyway.  Now what if a bigfoot answered the call first??  It could of killed him and left him for bear food.  I guess will never know but hunting in pairs would help.   BigBill
