I think they should open one! I went hunting in the beginning of last november for deer in Tallahasee on the Apalachicola forest and i saw 7 black bears includins a saw w/ 2 cubs. One of them i saw it from my ground blind @ 24yards away. it was like 260-270 lbs. And they are not affraid of people! I think that they are waiting for a hunter or someone else to get hurt to open a bear season here in Florida!!!!! JMHO!!!
