"so much strength in their jaw they can kill a calf by gumming it". Dang.

Damn - that is one tough old dog. Must have spent the past 10 years pissed off with those teeth, or, er... nubs.

That is just wild. I never knew they could live that long. Sounds like he was on his last legs.

why Kill him ? He had some more years he could have lived in the Old grizzly home.
The soft life with some soft food, could of fattened him up a bit and maybe gotten him laid one more time.
Mow that I would have donated money to !
He doesn't look bad for his age !
