Default RE: Jersey vs. bears: The gloves come off

It's about time they get the ball rolling again. I personally blame the antis for the recent confrontations between bruins and people. From what I've read the population has been at the peak of carring capasity due to continued developement. Canceling the last hunt was IMO the wrong decision and I see no way to get the population back to acceptable numbers without a hunt. I'm glad no one was seriously maimed by a bear while the DNR got the balls to push the hunt forward. Now if they'll just hold steadfast there will be a hunt this fall and hopefully for years to come.

I think if bears need to be relocated they should be dropped of in designated peta neighborhoods. Let the people who whine butdon't understand wildlife management deal with the concenquences of their political action.
