Man mauled by bear near Denali Highway

A man was flown to a hospital Friday after being mauled by a bear near the Denali Highway, the Alaska State Troopers said Sunday.
Troopers were not releasing details such as the man's name or the severity of his injuries as of Sunday afternoon, according to troopers spokesman Tim DeSpain.
The man and at least one companion were in an area near Mile 68 of the Denali Highway on Friday when the attack happened. The circumstances of the mauling were not clear Sunday, but DeSpain said they may have been hunting.
The injured man was taken to the highway by snow machine, DeSpain said. A LifeMed helicopter flew him to further medical treatment.
A wildlife trooper was traveling to the area Saturday to investigate.
This is a developing story. Check back for updates.
This is the same guy in the picture above that is recovering pretty well.

this picture is less than a month AFTER the mauling. Amazing recovery.
Someone was questioning this and a guy who saw him had this to say: I can assure you the pictures are true. I don't know how those surgeons performed the miracle they did, as that is what it is, nothing short of a miracle. I was the first person to see the man, other than his hunting partner, after the attack. The date was april 15th. It was the most horrific thing I have ever seen in my life, as you can see from the pictures. He lost one eye, but can see out of the other. He is the toughest SOB I have ever known.
(new edit)
The guy that confirmed it was the same guy was the guy that picked him up after the incident in a helicopter to take him to the hospital. Apparently his face was not torn off but pulled down.
