[oleheat]

Wow....another bruin goes down. I guess we should be thankful they didn't decide to bring in the grizzlies- YET.

I would hope this means the black bear population is on the rise.

But I am probably wrong......

I can't believe a bear was roaming around Burgess Ave, I've never even seen deer around there 20 years ago! Crazy! Thanks for the link oleheat!

Yeah- that is pretty wild! What's gonna be really hilarious is when one somehow wanders into one of "the hoods" in BR.....

Will send e mail to Bam Bam.

I've seen a few tracks here and there while scouting deer on family land in Central. They are usually passing through. Haven't seen a track in the last three years. Last sighting was in the mid 80's. My father and I saw one crossing the Comite while we were rabbit hunting. Thankfully the dogs never got on his trail. A friend in Arkansas says they are greasy, but still good eating....

That's depressing he had to be killed. Glad nobody was hurt though.

Sadly for the bear, but fortunately for Cpl Jenkins, the wounded animal died before it could harm Cpl. Jenkins or the driver of the vehicle.
I wonder if acute lead poisoning helped?

Look above the left eye where the 180gr. Gold Dot entered. Fired from a Glock 35.

Saw that but didn't want to assume, sad the pretty creature had to die.

Oh I would to!! We always wanted to turn out a big hog in the middle of mall city!

They have "hoods" in Walker, that would have been funny.
