Four Women and a Bear in Wyoming Death Hunt
Four women on a fishing trip near Jackson Wyoming faced a large black bear at cave mouth. Lacking a gun they pelted the animal with rocks while husbands stood by. After hours an old musket borrowed from a nearby ranch misfired but Bassett struck the bear with a blast and a wound proved fatal. The bear ranks among the region’s largest black bears recorded.
