Man Killed In Bear Mauling In Alaska
Oh wow, I can only imagine how terrible this is for the family who had to find shelter inside the cabin while the man who died was outside being killed by a bear. 
QUOTE A 64-year-old Fairbanks man was mauled to death by a bear at a remote lake in Alaska's interior, authorities said Friday.
The man and a family member were at a cabin at George Lake, about 110 miles southeast of Fairbanks, when the attack occurred Thursday evening.
The family member sought shelter inside the cabin and called authorities, Alaska State Troopers spokeswoman Megan Peters said.
A troopers helicopter dispatched from Fairbanks was unable to land in the terrain, but a Pavehawk helicopter from Eielson Air Force Base in Fairbanks was able to drop personnel at the site. Alaska Wildlife Troopers also responded by boat, aided by Good Samaritans.
Responders found the man's body outside the cabin, and the traumatized family member inside. The victim was identified as Robert Weaver, Peters said. A 64-year-old Fairbanks man was mauled to death by a bear at a remote lake in Alaska's interior, authorities said Friday.

Horrible! I'm quite confident that this man did it to protect his family. What an awful way to die. I'm glad to read the family is safe.
