Not to get into the whole trophy hunting debate, but personally I think it was pretty ballsy of a 15 year old girl to hunt and shoot a grizzly... particularly one that size. A full grown grizzly can go up to 1000 lbs and its a pure killing machine. Nothing in North America compares to it.

Not sure if anyone here has ever hunted in grizzly territory but I have and sometimes the experience gets pretty tense. You never know when you may be passing close by some thick cover and a grizzly might charge out of it from nowhere and be on top of you before you know it. Plus, if you do shoot a grizzly, you better make sure you take it down with the first shot. Nothings worse than a pissed off wounded grizzly.
