(Drunken) Alaska Man Feeds Black Bear Barbecue Meat, Gets Mauled for Dessert

Don't Feed The Bears

Alaska man feeds black bear barbecue meat, gets mauled for dessert

The drunken man could be charged with illegally feeding wildlife after the Alaska Department of Fish and Game says he 'pretty much goaded' the beast into the attack.

Beer, barbecue and black bears are never a good mix.

An Alaska man learned that the hard way this weekend when he threw a hungry bear a piece of barbecued meat — only to be mauled by the same bear.

"He'd been drinking," Alaska State Trooper spokeswoman Beth Ipsen told the Anchorage Daily News of the man.

The unidentified man was at a picnic Saturday at Eklutna Lake when he took off on a bike ride through the picturesque recreation area north of Anchorage. When he stumbled upon a black bear, the man tossed it some meat. The bear gobbled it down, and when the man offered another piece, "That's when it kind of went ballistic," Ipsen told the newspaper.

The drunken man, who police say could be charged with illegally feeding wildlife, was found by park rangers washing off at a campground. He'd been bloodied by a blow to his jaw and back.

The bear could not be located by Alaska Department of Fish and Game, and spokesman Ken Marsh said the bear is not likely a threat to other humans.

All the best stories start with either “Alaska man” or “Florida man”.

Timothy wanted to eventually pet a grizzly. I guess it didn’t work out.

If you’re going to give a bear barbeque meat, Rule #1 — Don’t run out of meat.

Presently live in Northern Florida and had a black bear(150 - 200 lbs) run in front of my car and disappear into the woods. I thought that was interesting.

This sounds like a great idea for a road race.
Hold it in an area with bears. Each runner starts out with a beer and some many hamburger patties.

Still thinking how we would pick the winner. Maybe the bears would be the winners?

Actually Timothy got to scratch the griz’s tummy - from the inside.

I have also heard that about black bears...they will stalk you for dinner, their dinner, not yours....we have lots of black bears in Michigan. You can find them in any dump outside of any small town in the UP.

A variation of that “training” I’ve seen also includes pepper spray along with the bells and mentions that grizzly bear feces smell like pepper.
