We found a gruesome sight of a dead bear laying on a bed of sphagnum moss. We wondered who killed the poor bear. It was horrible... it's eye has been gorged out... It's intestines seems to have been hollowed out...

Wow! Fantastic trip you guys, really sorry I couldn't make it! The N. sanguinea is amazing...good thing you added the 'size comparison' shots - your Thai friends are really small! Really sorry about the poor bear...must have been a poacher after his gall bladder for Chinese medicine!

Haa, haa... Shawn! Most probably... and they also would have taken the intestines etc for other purposes as well.
