Uh, that's me.  Weird, I haven't been on here since May and I click on this thread...The story was up back in May of '06.  Alaska Fish & Game said that bear turned out to be 18 years old after yanking and testing the tooth.

that is a 'punkinhead' !! I have seen them with heads that big; but.....

 Was the dead bear one someone else killed? I don't see any hair on or around it.

 This is a great bear; congratulations on taking it!
