Dangerous Game?
>Jaguar?
>If we are talking about North American dangerous game, do the Jaguar cats
still exist in Central America and Southern Mexico? Indeed I think there
were reports of sightings recently even in Southern USA! Possibly a release
or escapee of course.

Here in Montana we have the Grizzly bear. I think he falls
in that dangerous game. The only probulem is he is protected
here in Montana. Alaska has the only huntable numbers in the U.S.
they are incredabley strong and can run 35mph. We also have Mt. Lion
that could be dangerous. One male lion attack my nephew durning
hunting season 4 years ago scared the hell out of him to say the
least. He killed the lion but was still shaking 2 hours later
when I saw him.

All the kodiak brown bear is an over grown grizzly
there is no difference between the Alaskan Brown Bear
and the Grizzly. The major difference is the size.

Hunt375 are you sure?I had a friend from Alaska that swore up and down that the were two different species of bear.I am not a zoooligist or bioligist so I couldn't say for sure myself, once they get that large I don't try to tell the difference.

As I understand it they are the same species. The Kodiak and Grizzly.

The Kodiak gets his name from Kodiak Island and is a bigger version of the species due to the rich diet available on and around Kodiak Island. Thus they can grow to a much larger size.
