I hunt in Lake County and the Ocala National Forest And had my second deer I ever killed taken by 3 bears this year during bow season. When I was following I got within 25 yards of them before I seen them in the dark then they started growling at me. It was only 35 min. from the time I shot the deer to the time I found it with the bears on it. I realy think that they need to open a bear season. They are realy geting over-populated.

I agree 100%! They are starting to relate gun shots as "The Dinner Bell"and will come running when they hear a shot.There's been case'swith Cougersdoing the same thingto hunters in the Glades.
