Large Black Bear hit by combine was dead when hit
It turns out a deer hunter from Fargo ND shot the bear and it died in the corn field. The WI DNR confiscated the bear from the farmer who paid $75.00 to the DNR. The hunter admitted that he shot the bear twice and then he ( the hunter) tried to get a bear tag after the fact. The farmer was not charged in this incident. The hunterwas traced by his phone call during the deer season to the DNR and then the DNR took another look at the bear and found two bullet holes in the hide while it was at the taxidermists.The bear will be displayed by the DNR.
HOW STUPID CAN SOMEONE BE? First he shoots a bear out of season, then he tries to get a tag from the DNR. I am surprised the warden didn't see it was shot!
