The Bear Thread

[Mirah]

Or is it bare thread?

The National Park wants to "introduce" grizzlies to the North Cascades.

They say it will benefit the environment and the species etc etc etc.

They have been trying to get this done for several years and for several years the locals have been rallying against it.

Tonight I am listening to an informational live "meeting" where basically they are saying, "Well, Canada is going to do it, so we have to manage the bears when they come to America"

Also, this can be a thread to say that i saw a cute mama bear (black bear) walking across the road with her cubs.

This thread is also a thread where I can talk about the bear that someone hunted and that i decided to look at. (I wish I hadn't)

He shot it with a bow an arrow.

Oh how horrible! I don't want to know how much it suffered... did it live?

No. 0_0

Someone told me about it as I was leaving work and I debated going to see it, I saw it.
Later I cried.
I mean, I eat meat and all, but seeing something like that definitely had an impact I wasn't expecting.

I saw bear prints in the sand. Less than 1 mile from where I live.
