yes I agree, and then they all cry when the poor bears do something they don't like, not knowing they created the problems in the first place
but again, a 1,000 lb bear might be possible due to things like this sadly!
not a true natures feat, but helped along by man to get them there!
an average bear can eat 50+ lbs in a sitting, so, if one had enough $$ and ignorance to do so, PA has some BIG bears as is and good genetic's
I can see one happening MAYBE some day!
