A fellow
Bear Bum sent me this article about a Florida Black Bear rescue. Pretty cool considering this guy dragged a nice bear out of the Gulf of Mexico near Alligator Point. I guess the bear was wandering around a neighborhood and when tranquilized went darting into the Gulf.
Crazy. This guy is a nut. As the bear started snoozing he jumped in and dragged it to shore.
I found this picture on FoxNews:
The adult black bear can weigh from 150 to 600+ lbs. This bear is no joke weighing 375 lbs. This weight seems to be slightly above average for adult male Florida Black Bears.
