9-year-old seriously injured in attack by brown bear on Palmer Hay Flats
The boy was on a hunt with a family member when the bear attacked, troopers said. The man shot and killed the bear.
Neither would have helped a nine year old. Adult with him took care of the situation appropriatelyNo handgun and no pepper spray, I hope he gets back on his feet soon enough.
Yes. He was medi-vacced from Palmer to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle b/c of their trauma unit. He was seriously injured but is expected to recover.Last I heard , just before bed was that the young man was still with us, and in “fair” condition.
Thank God!!!Yes. He was medi-vacced from Palmer to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle b/c of their trauma unit. He was seriously injured but is expected to recover.
I see your in Wasilla, he called me yesterday and the caller ID said Wasilla. You may know who he is hunting/ fishing with. Unfortunately I don’t know the names of his host.It’s tough hunting for sure.
