I must have read the court decsion wrong or something. Everbody is upset but you have to read what it says. Yes, NJ will probly lose the next bear season..BUT- the court has forced the state to put in place the checks and balances that are required by the game laws of NJ to allow a hunt of bears. The court has actually agrued the case for a hunting season, once the bear has been consider for protection and propagation.

Now for the BAD news...if this campbell guy WILL NOT listen to his bioligists and game council..then the hunters of NJ need to persue your REP's and Senators to remove him or pressure him to change his opinion. This crap is happening all over the country...states hire wildlife bioligist but dont listen to thier facts or ideas. Or even worse, put it on a ballot for the usually uneducated voter to decide. That is crazy...how many of us are wildlife bioligists with all the training and education to make a rational decision in a voting booth. I wish this best to you bear hunters and hope you guys get your season.
