A 50-year-old hunter has been found dead in an apparent brown bear mauling on an island in south-eastern Alaska, authorities said Thursday.

Tad Fujioka, of Sitka, was reported overdue on Tuesday evening after not returning from a solo daylong hunting trip on the heavily forested Baranof Island, Alaska state troopers said.
