This is why bears are learning how to fly.
Doesn’t have the same ring as “moose and flying squirrel” though.
Where the hell did he drive? A zoo? A petting farm? o__O
There’s just too much wildlife in the area where that guy lives.
Well now it’s slightly less wildlife, so there’s that. Hunting a wounded bear sounds like an awful lot of fun, or not.
I hope he got a nice thank you note from the moose. The bear may have had nefarious intentions.
That’s libel, we’ll sue!

Black bears, and black Angus cows are hard to see out in the country. I’ve almost hit both animals, no not at the same time.
Bear can be pretty big, you don’t want to hit it. A friend bagged a California bear last season, got 180 pounds of meat alone. Norwegian bear may be bigger.
300 to 800 pounds is a reasonable weight span.
The type of bear makes a big difference. Black bears will weigh a few hundred pounds. Brown bears can weigh twice that. The largest gummy bear I know if is around 5 lb.
