A new case of animal attack has surprised the world, but this time it was provoked. A 62-year-old hunter has died after the grizzly bear he shot lunged at him before it died.
The lifeless body of the man was found 50 meters away from the corpse of the huge animal.

It happened in Siberia -in the Tulun district of the Irkutsk region-, Russia, where the local media reported the event as an attack “in revenge“by the mammal that gave its last breath.

What happened?
According to the British newspaper ‘Daily Mail’, the hypothesis of the authorities is that, moments after shooting and fatally wounding the bear from the top of a tree, the hunter decided to climb down trusting that his game was dead.
The surprise was great when, apparently, the animal pounced on him, smashing his skull and tearing it apart with its huge claws and fangs.
“The mortally wounded predator managed to inflict a wound from which the hunter died“, were the words of the regional office of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia on the fact in a statement.
The bear pounced on him as he took his last breaths.
