This is the earliest I taken a bear, maybe ever. I usually have success in late May or early June. Here's my boar from yesterday.

Great color. Congrats on a great bear. A little bummer on the dens mites too.

Is that what causes that on the face? Sounds like a type of mange. Darn near bald around the forehead. He's defiantly got that Uncle Fester look about him. That's okay, gives him character, and I have enough wall hangers. I'm really liking the claws, super light in color, they'll look good with the skull.
 
Super color on that guy! I'm thinking next spring I'll be somewhere in ID with a bear tag.
 
I've seen bears come out of the den almost bald. I thought about lice,mites, or even mice stealing their hair for nests.

Congrats on the first bear (I've heard of) taken this year.
 
Awesome bear! I'd love to find a big blonde one like that one day.
