Leonard, you'll like this.
Hunting with hounds, this bear backed into a drainpipe. I went head to head with him while one of the guys built a campfire with a flare.
These pictures are shrunk way down from my originals to fit on the web. Kiddies, don't try this without your parents' permission.
I could hear him scrambling my way in the dark, but could only see him when the camera flash went off. Estimated weight was 280-300 lbs.
We treed him later and let him go, deeming him too small to tag, but fun to photograph.

Man, you got balls to stick your head in there. Never hunted bear with hounds. Boar, yes.
I will guess that culverts are a resource that many overlook, there are a lot of animals that crash in them.
BTW, did you catch the article in the Sunday Times about the guy teaching "nahuatl"; the Aztec language?
Good hunting. LB
