According to the series, "Mountain Men" every boar grizzly killed could save the lives of at least 6 other bears since senior males will kill cubs and sometimes females

I imagine this will be pretty much a non-news story. Makes sense. Just do it. Move on.

But you know if Trump did this, it would be the end of the world and an assault on Mother Nature. An act of hate.

Good - they’ve ALWAYS had a crappy attitude and as far as I’m concerned they’re no different than the people in our inner cities.

There is a study from Europe which shows Grizzly bears, mostly mature males, kill 25% of young bears every year.

Studies of black bears and polar bears indicate the practice is common among the three species.

I have eaten bear meat too. It wasn’t bad.

Anyone working for a place with a name like that has lost my support.

Let’s relocate grizzly bears to inner cities. They will ensure that the overpopulation of the violent demographic occupying those places will cease.

In the early days 1800’s the range of the Ursus Horribilis was from the Mississippi River to the Pacific Coast and from Alaska to Mexico. Early trappers formed large hunting parties to kill as many as possible. Common rifles at the time were .36 caliber muzzle loaders which were not very effective against large bears. The bear attack in the movie “The Revenant” was historically and medically accurate. As the West was settled the grizzly bears had to go. Their ferocity and bad attitude are legendary. They haven’t changed much.
