LUNENBURG COUNTY, Va. (WTVR)—There are plenty of small black bears spotted in the greater Richmond area, but a bear recently killed by a hunter could take the state record for its size.
A young hunter killed a big black bear in Lunenberg County on Tuesday. The bear weighed 674 pounds, and stood close to nine feet tall.
25-year-old D.J. Lacks brought down the bear with his rifle, shooting it from 75 yards away in the woods of Lunenberg County.
