The irony in this post is fantastic.

I tell you what bro, go get up at 3:30am, bundle up, wander off into the Canadian woods when it's about 20 degrees F (or maybe even -20F), and then sit perfectly still and remain totally quiet for hours on end in the bitter cold until you actually SEE a bear(which could take days, or never happen at all)

Then, with all the adrenaline pumping through you, and frozen shaking hands, possibly in bad lighting, very likely at an imprecisely known range, you have to make that one lethal killing shot despite being frozen solid and pumped full of adrenaline. And don't miss, because if you do that bear might just decide to kill you.

Then you will understand that big game hunting is one of the most challenging endeavors any man can undertake....and extremely dangerous.

I love when people who have no idea what they're talking about opine on a subject.

As for what weapon the bear was using, the bear IS a weapon. A MkI grizzly bear is one of the most dangerous naturally designed weapons systems ever to grace the face of the earth- one with NO natural predator except for man.
Did ya see those claws? They'll tear your head clean off in one swipe. Did ya know a grizzly bear can EASILY run down a man in a very short distance? Did you know they can exceed 35mph in straight line speed- almost double that of a man?

To compensate, we get thumbs. I dare say we got the better part of the deal.
