Newfield Bear

[Bigfoot]

This bruin picked a fight we a pickup truck (both lost). State RT 13 near Test Road in Newfield this morning.

Big ass bear. Any idea its weight?

[Bigfoot]

Don't know the weight. My location info is a little wrong- should be about a mile south- RT 13 and Sebring Road.

Wow!

How much damage to the truck. Were you able to keep the bear?

[DJ 17]

That's too bad. That's a cool bear.

[Bigfoot]

Pap, I didn't hit the bear.

Pics were posted by a trusted neighbor on Facebook. I thought some on this forum would be interested.

I understand that the bear was left on the side of the road- don't know who ended up with it.

I have been told the driver was not seriously injured.

 

Bear had been seen crossing the road there before.

Rumor has it that it had been previously tagged by DEC and that it was six years old.

well I'm glad to Hear you didn't get hurt or your truck smashed, it looks like a nice size bear that could have done some serious damage. Thanks for the reply!! PAP
