Time for Grizzly hunts

[Fink]

If these suckers are gonna start hunting people, from the trailhead.... I think it's time to issue a few grizzly tags in the lower 48.

Interesting and scary in the same sence. Always be bear-aware.

They need to fear humans a little more... that is scary. I think a hunting seasons are in order...

Then start putting pressure on your senators! Share our blogs that covered the subject with your friends, it is high time that this happens.

People need to understand that we don't want to eradicate them, we want to manage them and see them prosper with a healthy respect for us. Just like we have for them!

Very interesting and I agree with Scott!

Good thread this needs to get out to everyone, it is long overdue and the issue needs to be addressed.

I am all for it. My hearing is bad and griz have no trouble sneaking up on me.

That is a good article. I have been hearing about grizz coming towards gun shots in the Upper Green and areas like that for a long time. Thankfully no personal experience with that.

https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/113/hr4317/text This one is in the house and apparently identical.

I am not sure, but I think the wolf issue and the grizzly issue would both be affected by this amendment to have more local input on the endangered species act decisions.
