The photographer captured a young black bear as he stumbled upon a wounded buck that had been hit by a car. Editor's Note: Some of the photos in this gallery are graphic.

The 10-pointer was still alive after being hit, but he wasn't able to walk.

At first, it seems like the young bear isn't quite sure how to dispatch his victim.

The buck is bigger than the bear and even though he's injured, the buck puts up quite a struggle.

But finally, the bear wrestles the buck into the ditch and goes in for the kill.

Even though the photographer was fairly close to the action, the bear didn't seem to mind and went on with his business.
