This was the famous gigantic rocky mountain front grizzly which had the nick name “Maximus”. If you know anything about this incident, please call 1-800- TIP-MONT.
“Maximus” was the 2nd largest recorded bear in the lower 48. The largest ever recorded bear was in the same area a few years earlier! It’s possible that Maximus was related to the record holder, as he was gigantic for his age( seven and a half years).
The Rocky Mountain Front in Montana is very special country. Of that there is no doubt. There’s nothing else like it.
