Many of us through the years of this extraordinary bear's life have gotten great images  of him, including me.
Very sad and pathetic.

This is really sad. He lived a long full life, but it is really sad it ended the way it did. It would be nice to know some of the details that led to his death. Outside the park there are lots of folks that are paranoid about grizzlies killing stock, and lots of cowboys who just like to shoot stuff. Who knows?
