The Boone and Crockett Club has confirmed a new record grizzly bear.⁠ ⁠ The giant boar was taken by a traveling hunter in Alaska in 2024, and it scored 27 9/16 inches, making it the largest hunter-killed grizzly in the B&C records book. Brian Van Lanen, of Wisconsin, killed the record-setting griz on a guided hunt near Norton Sound, Alaska, last fall, according to B&C. Hunting with guide Lance Kronberger, Van Lanen had both a moose tag and a grizzly bear tag when they set out in September, and they were holding out for the right bull one evening when they spotted the huge grizzly in an alder patch near a river. The old boar was covered in scars, and its teeth were worn to nubs.⁠ ⁠ Tap the link in profile for the full story 🔗⁠ ⁠ #grizzly #grizzlybear #bear #bears #booneandcrockett #conservation #hunting #bearhunting #grizzlyhunting #outdoorlife #bearhunt⁠ 📷: booneandcrockettclub⁠ Story by: dac.collins
