Pär Sundström, 42, was attacked by a bear during the first day of the hunt. Saved by his 14-year-old son, the Swede decided to devour it with his family.

The meat was used for the Mexican dish, but also for goulash, skewers, köttbullar (recipe based on meatballs) at Christmas, bear bones and even meat sauce bear. The bite is still visible on his face and the scars will likely never go away.
