MacFarlane's Bear: On June 24th of 1864, Inuit Eskimo hunters caught a gigantic prehistoric-sized bear and gave the huge skull and pelt to a naturalist named Roderick MacFarlane. The bear was described as being yellowish-brown, with red hair across it's lower belly. The evidence of the bear was sent to the Smithsonian for study, where it was classified as a new "unexpected" new species, and fined away. Ever since, naturalists have theorerized that any relic population of this unusual species of bears had become extinct since the capture. However, recent DNA testing has proved that on rare occasions, grizzly bears can successfully breed with polar bears to create enormous monster hybrids. #babettebombshell #hauntedhotel #unsolvedmysteries #cryptozoology #giantbears #prehistoricbear #macfarlanesbear #fortean #xfiles
