>>>Using that, there should be 6,000 bears in Florida now.<<<
There must be, even more. We have bears here all the time. They come off Eglin AFB and raid peoples garbage cans, restaurants and even here at work in the industrial park. I’ve seen bears many times, even had to wait for one to cross the road so I could get to work. ...............
I don’t know about anyone else, but if I find myself threatened by a bear, I will not be waiting on some state general assembly to make a ruling allowing me to kill the bear. This is silly. Government has become silly.
As far as I’m concerned, ZERO bears is the right number, since they have such a crappy attitude about life.
Bogart Bear.
My niece and NIL had black bear(s) wandering around their neighborhood in Gulf Breeze (Pensacola area) a few years back. I looked at the area on a map, and realized they were a few blocks from the Naval Live Oaks Nature Preserve. This is a piece of land that was kept for strategic materials in the day of wooden ships. Today, it is prime wildlife habitat right next to lots of neighborhoods. Black bear sightings shouldn’t be a surprise there.
A friend of mine lives near a protected forest that has an active bear population. His two dogs used to keep them out of his yard by barking. One summer day, that no longer worked. A bear pushed in a panel on the screen enclosing his pool so she and her two cubs could take a dip and rest in the shade. My friend’s two dogs quietly and glumly looked on from behind the safety of the sliding glass door to the house.
If you hit a deer, the deer dies.
If you hit an elk, you die.

“I don’t care what the state laws say. If a bear attacks you, you have a right to self-defense.”
You have always had the right to self defense. This clarifies defense of pets and adds protection of buildings.
