Hello,

I'm in Minnesota near the twin cities areaand I'm wondering if anyone can direct me toland whereI could hunt bear. I'm 17 years old so I've only hunted a couple of years and I don't come from a hunting family (I deer hunt onpublic land with a neighbor) so I don't really have any experience with this type of hunting or how to get started.

I've talked to people who bear hunt and it sounds like a lot of fun but I don't know if it is the kind of thing you need private land for or if there is state land you can hunt. Can anyone point me in the right direction for getting started in this type of hunting and where I could possiblyhunt in the area?
