LOL those are nice storys,but,have you ever smelled a bear that has been rollling in roadkill that has been out in the sun for a week,have you ever heard the bellow of a moose at close range,ever seen a moose moving away fro you through the trees?ect,ect not even 1 shred of proof,nophotos,no photos of tracks?There are plenty of idiots in this state that mistake horses for elk and cattle for bears every year to the point they get shot,just because these storys come from montanans dosent give them any credability.Like I said we have snow up here for a long period of time dont you think someone would cross thier path and report the tracks or take a pic?Maybe they wear boots or snowshoes during the winter so we think we are crossing the tracks of another hunter?Im not saying the couldnt exist but I am saying I doubt they hang out around here.You will enjoy this one,a friend of my dads named Wayne shot a yearling black angus many years ago while bear hunting on our ranch just north of here,ended up costing him around $1000 dollars after he paid the owner,now whenever we are out hunting and we see cattle we say"there some Waynebears",he doesnt think it as funny as I do.
