‘A bear chewed my face off – so I ATE it’, says hunter mauled by beast before son punched it allowing him to open fire
A HUNTER who was mauled by a bear has revealed how his son saved his life – by shooting the beast dead and turning it into kebab meat.
The pair had been hunting in a forest in Sweden when a bear hurtled towards Pär Sundström, 42, knocking him to the ground and gnawing on his face.
Pär said that the shots he fired through the bear’s body did nothing to stop the attack, and it was only when his son Evert, 14, karate chopped the enraged animal’s head.
“I got so terribly angry and thought I had to do something,” Evert told Swedish media after the incident.
“I practice karate and I ran forward and hit the bear’s head as hard as I could with my clenched hand. Then I don’t remember anymore.”
Pär compared the ensuing scene to a wrestling match.
He revealed how the bear had turned it’s attention to the teenager – sinking it’s sharp incisors into Evert’s arm and using brute force to throw him around.
Yet, Pär’s resilient son continued to hit the bear over the head with his other arm.
The brutal scene sent shock waves through the wounded father, who was subsequently able to regain control over himself and pick up his rifle.
“I needed to wait for the right sight to shoot, so that Evert wouldn’t be behind the bear and risk being hit,” Pär said.
It was only after Pär tried to take aim that he realised how injured he was.
“It splattered like hell, there was blood everywhere,” he recalled.
The recoil from the shots hit Pär directly in a gaping hole under his right eye, but the shots were effective this time and Evert was able to shake the bear.
The father-son duo were left scrambling to pick up parts of Pär’s face from the forest floor, before Evert called emergency services.
Pär says he is incredibly grateful to have such a wise son, crediting his decision to have him airlifted to hospital for saving his life.
“I’m happy about that today, that I have a very wise son,” he said.
“I think Evert is a hero because I think he saved my life right then and there, simply because he reacted as quickly as he did and tackled the bear.”
Pär was rushed into a 13-hour surgery where doctors were able to reconstruct part of his face by using skin from his thigh.
The pair revealed how they then got the “ultimate revenge”, with Pär describing how they used the bear’s body for kebab meat.
He said: “Stuffing a taco with the meat of a bear that bit me in the face was truly the ultimate revenge in my eyes.
“The meat is dark, coarse, sweet and requires lots of spices. This bear lived mainly on grasses and herbs; the meat is good to eat.”
“If a bear has eaten carrion, it’s not possible to eat. Then the meat smells like surströmming (fermented herring).”
Having frozen the leftovers from their feast, Pär said his family has enough kebab and taco meat to last them months.
This isn’t the first time that a man has wrestled a bear and lived to tell the tale.
Andreas Kieling, 63, told German media how he had been able to escape after protecting his neck when a bear lunged at him.
He added that his top tricks for surviving included not fainting from the agony, and trying not to scream.
“When bears fight among themselves, they quickly react. When one submits, the other quickly lets go of him. That was my luck.”
While an American woman revealed how she was able to escape a savage black bear mauling by using a quilt.
Laurel-Rose von Hoffmann-Curzi, 67, said: “There was a quilt hanging on [a nearby] railing and I threw it over his head.
“It was the only thing that was there and the only thing, in that moment, I could think to do.
“It must have startled him as he turned around and went back down the stairs.”
‘HONEY BEAR’ / BIGFOOT TRACKS Found on Franklin County, Illinois Farm? (PHOTOS)
A Thompsonville, Illinois Farmer found a few unknown tracks on his property recently. Could this be a Bigfoot? Has anyone ever heard or read the term ‘Honey Bear’ in reference to a Bigfoot?
I received the following information from a reader:
“Hello, Lon. A buddy of mine lives 5 hours south of Chicago and found this track on his family farm.
They were out walking the property and found two different types of tracks in the mud. It had rained a few days before. Both sets were heading from a tree line to a little pond they have there. His family has owned the property for a few generations.
His grandmother told him that back in the 60s she was sitting on the porch and she saw what she called a “honey bear” in the field across the road standing on two legs.
The farm is in an area referred to as Corinth. It’s 6 miles south of Thompsonville, Illinois (Franklin County).”
NOTE: it looks to me like, at least, the top image could very well be that of a Bigfoot. The other track looks to be somewhat older and washed out. The location is northeast of Shawnee National Forest, an area well-known for Bigfoot activity.
Has anyone ever heard or read the term ‘Honey Bear’ in reference to a Bigfoot or any other creature in the area? Take a look and tell me what you think. Lon

‘The Bear’ Season 2 trailer teases restaurant woes and food, glorious food
After getting our pulses skyrocketing and our mouths watering, The Bear is back for Season 2.
The trailer for the highly anticipated second season features several classic staples of The Bear, including delicious-looking food (I need that steak stat), stressful kitchen talk, and Carmy (Jeremy Allen White) going through it. But really, when isn’t he going through it?
Season 2 sees Carmy and Sydney (Ayo Edebiri) working together to turn the Original Beef of Chicagoland into a new destination spot: The Bear. From money troubles to renovation woes to whatever a chaos menu is, this journey looks like it’s going to be an uphill battle. But are we ready for it? Duh, yes, chef.

FOUR-LEGGED HUMAN-LIKE CREATURE Observed at Big Bear, CA Hotel
An unknown four-legged human-like creature is observed by a guest at a Big Bear, California hotel. There was also weird activity occurring at the same time. Very interesting incident.
“The night of February 27, 2017, in the early AM, I was staying at the Best Western in Big Bear. At approximately 12:35 am I walked to my car alone to retrieve my luggage. It had been snowing and was extremely dark, my car was facing a country road. When I hit the unlock button on my car, the parking, and interior lights came on. This allowed me to see two eyes reflecting in the middle of the road, about 10-15 feet from me. At first, I thought it was a deer, I have lived in Colorado and I’m accustomed to seeing wildlife.
I instantly stopped and remained still as I didn’t want to scare off what I thought was a deer. As my eyes glanced downwards, I noticed it wasn’t a deer, it looked like a white, hairless naked man on all fours. It was at least four feet in height, on all fours. Probably be around 15 feet if it stood up. There was a brief moment as our eyes made contact. It then, as quickly as I have ever seen any animal, turned around, ran as fast as a cheetah away from me, and then, straight up a tree. I was frozen in disbelief. I said out loud to myself, “you have to be flipping kidding me”. Just as I was going to convince myself that this couldn’t possibly be happening, it leaped from tree top to tree top and I could see its full outline as it did so.
I’ve never heard of such a creature but, I have found some other videos and pictures online that look exactly like what I saw.
The speed and strength it had is like nothing I’d ever heard of before. The creature was definitely solid, it appeared as if it was coming toward me, possibly hunting me? I don’t know what stopped it. Was it the lights that went on? It had no visible genitalia. It had very human-like qualities.
First, it was a new moon and I believe it was an eclipse that day as well. There was a creek across the street. I don’t know if this has anything to do with my experience but, I was also a day from menstruating.
If this had been a huge-eyed Grey alien, it would have made more sense. I’ve heard of those but, this was unlike anything I’ve ever been familiar with.
None of this makes sense to me, the speed, and agility of the creature and there shouldn’t be any way that the treetops should have been able to hold the weight of the creature. It appeared to be flashing like a TV going in and out of reception as it sprinted up the tree. It also didn’t appear to disrupt the foliage as it did so.
I immediately called my father after I rushed back into my hotel room. My son was asleep and I was understandably in a state of shock. At this time, no one knew what hotel I was staying in. As I was crying on the phone with my father, the hotel phone rang. I answered it and it was only a dial tone. Then, there was a knock at the hotel room door. Once again, no one was there.
At this point, my son woke up due to the commotion. I told him it was a scary dream. I gave my father the hotel information and he advised me to go wait in the lobby with my son. As we were leaving, there was another knock but, it was at the back sliding glass door that went out to a private fenced-in patio.
This was a one-time encounter and it’s unfortunate that I still live in fear of this experience. I was raised Christian, and this humanoid doesn’t fit into any category with which I am familiar. I don’t know why this happened and what I’m supposed to learn from it. In addition, the hotel phone number, I found out later, has six 6’s in a row. I don’t know if that has anything to do with what happened. I was always taught that demons can’t have a physical body unless it’s possessing someone. I can’t imagine it flying a spacecraft due to its primal manner. is it a trans-dimensional being? Nephilim? What was it going to do? Is it going to come after me again? Why didn’t it do what it was set out to do?
My previous beliefs about the world and the way things work has been tossed upside down. While it’s thought-provoking, it’s been very traumatic and has me in a panicked state that’s distracting and mostly negative.”
NOTE: For the past several years, I have been investigating sightings of a humanoid in and around the Big Bear Lake area, then southeast into Big Morongo Canyon and along Rt.62 into Yucca Valley & Joshua Tree. There have been reports of people going missing in the area for several years, and a few body parts have been recovered. There have also been sightings of a winged humanoid in Yucca Valley. Lon
