Biggest Bear 18 Dead Adorns Oklahoma Museum

The old grizzly known as Old One Toe, famed for two decades across Northwest Wyoming, is reported dead and slated to be displayed in the Waiver-Y of Oklahoma natural history museum. The event marks the bear as possibly the largest of its era, with records suggesting a body weight around 1700 pounds and a length of about 11 feet from nose tip to tail. The hunting party, including Campbell of Oklahoma, traveled from Dubois, Wyoming, to the Jackson Hole region, where the bear was finally tracked after a long pursuit that included a bear, a calf carcass, and a rugged canyon hunt. The expedition notes detail a perilous encounter with a grizzly as dusk fell, horses spooked, and the hunter fired multiple shots in fading light before locating the bear’s retreat into the timber.
