Re: Retired wildlife officer shoots bear in his house
Why did the media refrain from identifying what kind of bear it was? Why did the homeowner assume it was a repeat offender? Maybe he got in with the wrong crowd of bears. He may have been a good hearted soul who was just mixed up but trying to turn his life around and support his cubs.
Yes, I know I'm going to hell for this. Don't care.
Edit... Aw come on... We talk about shooting people on this forum but my post automatically edits to "heck"? Hilarious.

He may have been wearing a hoodie and carrying skittles.
Guns are like parachutes, if your ever in a situation that you need one and you dont have one, you'll probably never need one again.

I think the reporter got it wrong. He was actually shooting bare in his house. What goes on behind closed doors is none of my business...

500 pound black bear sounds like a big one.

Speaking of bears. I saw this earlier today.
Nasty bear fight, but not gory.
