Think your Wednesday blows? It obviously could be much worse.
According to UPI, a 56-year-old taxidermist named Wilf Lloyd was recently attacked by a grizzly bear while he and his buddy were hunting in Fernie, B.C., and then shot by his friend who was trying to save him.![man survives grizzly bear attack and getting shot by friend]()
The good news for Lloyd is that one of the bullets from his friend's gun actually hit the bear and killed it. He was transported to a Calgary hospital by an air ambulance whose spokesman confirmed that Lloyd had been "shot accidentally by his hunting partner while attempting to neutralize the animal."
Maybe it's just us, but "neutralize" seems like the wrong word in this situation, as we find it hard to believe that anybody with a gun who is watching his friend get mauled to death by a grizzly bear is going to use it just to "neutralize" the thing.
Lloyd is listed in stable condition and has made no comment about the irony of a taxidermist getting attacked by a wild animal.
