The story goes like this ……….. happened 50 miles north of Merrill in Minocqua, WI at Timber Ridge golf course. These pictures are of a bear and a buck which were in the turtle pond at the entrance to Timber Ridge Friday morning. The buck had a broken leg (probably from a run-in with a car) and the bear was trying to finish him off. They attracted quite a crowd and people watched them for over 45 minutes until the police showed up and shot the wounded deer. The bear left soon after the shooting started. People were on the road and the animals were on the other side of the pond roughly 100 feet away. The bear lunged at the deer many times and eventually got him on shore and broke His other front leg but the deer made it back into the water. The bear would not attack the deer when it was in the water.
