"I'm a huge animal conservationist myself and would be looking for a bear that was dressed either by way from a zoo or died of natural causes out in the wild. NOT shot and taken in."
Being "shot and taken in" is a natural cause of death.

Humans have killed them, and vice a versa since first they met. If you wish to buy one you'll have to find one for sale in your own state. Or you can do like that other fellow with more money than brains and buy a boat and attempt to smuggle it across.
