The Wild Life, with Mark Taylor

Daryl Taylor with a nice Franklin County bear

Daryl Taylor of Moneta sent in this shot of a nice bear he killed in Franklin County on Dec. 13. He said the brute weighed 300 pounds, and by the looks of that head I don't think there's any reason to doubt that number. Nice!
Taylor said he owed big thanks to "Frankie, Damon and Troy (Diesel)" for helping him haul the bear out of the woods, and thanks to Johnny of Southeastern Outdoors Supplies for staying open late to check in the bear.
