A 62-year-old man is in serious condition at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle hospital after being mauled by a bear in Alaska.

Hospital spokeswoman Susan Gregg said Danny High of Funny River, Alaska, was in intensive care Monday at Harborview Medical Center.

Alaska State Troopers say High was not armed with a gun or bear spray when he was attacked Sunday.

Troopers described High's injuries as major when he was flown from the scene to the Seattle hospital.

Troopers were unable to find the bear.

Funny River is on the Kenai Peninsula.
