Bear stories

Not sure if this bear was taken in a hunt or killed in highway traffic. Hunting of bears is allowed in Harlan and Pike Counties of Kentucky.

Poster of the video seemed more awed by the accents than the bear. LOL

I've seen a grizzly all too up close and personal once, up in the mountains along the Idaho-Wyoming border, but to this day I have yet to see a black bear in the wild.

There's over 30,000 of them in Wisconsin alone. Never want to see one outside of a zoo.
There are several species that need to be reduced in many areas. Illinois released coyotes in Chicago to control rodents, now they're all over the suburbs, eating people's dogs.
There are moose in Massachusetts, causing road collisions. Now elk in Kentucky, and cougars moving east. They even captured a cougar near a school in Omaha.
Yes, many animals need to be pared back.

Remember, when you encounter a bear in the wild you do NOT have to outrun it ... only ya buddy! (Shame on me)

this i agree with i dont have be the fastest but just outrun the guy next to me, or hope he is more interested in food or getting away from me.
