Blood trailing in Coyote country

I lost a huge black bear in Manitoba several years ago with a recurve. I hit him a little high and he bolted into the scrub. It got dark so we came back in the morning and the coyotes had eaten darn near the entire bear overnight. We estimated a live weight of nearly 600#
Man that sucked. Great big bear with a recurve and loose it to coyotes. Was bear hunting in Minnesota about ten years ago, we're loading guns and stuff on the ATVs after a evening set when they lit up all around us. Must have been six or eight of them. Usually not afraid of them, but this time we unpacked the rifles.
