Default RE: 800 POUND BLACK BEAR KILLED, LOOK HERE!!!!!

From today's NJ Star Ledger, also had a picture of the bear skin:

"It's a lot different, people who live in the city and people who live in the country," said Douglas Kristiansen, 49, who killed a state record 864-pound bear Monday. "In the city, they watch Walt Disney movies and see Bambi, but they don't see the damage and disease from overpopulated bears."

Kristiansen, who lives in Pike County, Pa., just across the Delaware River from Sussex County, said the bear he killed is the same one that had been spotted rooting through trash bins at the youth camp where he works. The bear, he declared, was a nuisance.

Now, the bruin's cape will become a rug and its meat, stacked in his back yard, will be eaten.
