No dog available to shoot?
It’s no surprise, New Jersey is becoming so diverse, Indian food, Japanese food, Mexican food, ...
A 218 pound bear is not a cub and is not the cutest thing one can see.
Any bear can quickly do a large amount of damage to a person
A 218-pound bear is just a dangerous as the same sized “Teddy Bear” walking down the center of the road in Ferguson, Mo.

This story is eight years old.

That incident took place 10 miles south of me in a place I've been hunting for 30 years. There has never so many bear in this particular area as there is now. I refuse to enter those woods without ”protection".
