In an interview with Life.ru, he doubted that those attacked by the predator were in fact engaged in poaching.

“I spoke with the third of the men who survived.

I listened to him and realized that going with such guns on a bear is just nonsense.

I talked to our hunters here, our people here spend weeks preparing, you know, carbines, machine guns, something else, dogs - this is a very complicated preparatory process.

People need to be trained there, ”Kosenko said.

He claims that the men had a small house in the forest, where they come to go fishing in winter.

From there they then returned.

The third survivor told the trainer that he was pulling the boat out when he heard shouts and shots.

Earlier it was reported that on October 19 in the Uvat region, a bear suddenly attacked three men - 41, 48 and 23 years old, who were returning from fishing through a forest.

One man was killed.
