RE: Bear huntings different...No?
There is definately nothing wrong with you. I have outfitted bear hunts in Ontario for many years and have seen many attitudes toward the bear. They range from love to fear to respect. The important one is respect. Make no mistake this animal is a predator and he is at the top of the food chain. More people have been attacked by black bears than grizzlies. That does not include many hunters because of coarse you are in a different situation when you are the hunter and the bear is the hunted. Just respect the animal because he is capable of causing you harm.
Hunting a predator is different from hunting other game in that they have a limited ability to think or reason things out and do not react simply by instinct. One should not judge hunting a bear over bait to harshly until one has tried it. What you see on TV is not neccessarily the way it is. You make the smallest error and the bear is history.
Bear hunting is a truly challenging sport, the meat is delicious, and the hide is a great trophy. But, if it is not for you so be it. Would be a dull world if we all were the same.
