Nicholas Kuperus, 33, of the Nunica area, was hunting moose with friends Sept. 6 about 60 miles north of Glennallen in the Upper East Fork Indian River area. The area is about 300 miles northeast of Anchorage. Kuperus managed to pull out bear spray and spray the attacking animal. One of the other two hunters then fired a handgun and the bear moved off.
They transported Nicholas Kuperus to an ambulance in Glennallen and from there to a hospital for further treatment.“They stitched him up and he’s doing well,” he said.
