Brown Bear Hunting
Bear Attack
There can be no death any more horrifying than one of a bear attack. Even the mere thought of a bear mauling a person sends shivers to the most seasoned and experienced outdoorsman. It addresses a pronounced deep and primal fear within all humans, the fear of being killed by a wild animal. Yet as terrifying as that thought is, that is exactly what happened to Ken Cates in Soldotna, Alaska on a seemingly innocent spring afternoon on Tuesday, May 25th, 1999. At exactly 12:00 noon he told his wife of 35 years that he was going to go for a hike and would be back around four o'clock. He would never return.
