		<description>It&#039;s nice to see we are gaining control of the Black Bear population.  I have had several bears destroy my yard, threaten my dogs and myself.  The story is not about eliminating all, but controlling the population.  They do the same with deers when the herds get to dense and start destroying farming crops, etc.  It&#039;s all nature.  This is not between what is human and what is animal.  Much like having to watch a pack of wolves take down a beautiful buffalo, it&#039;s disgusting, very sad and extremely savage like.  Be thankful we have hunters with skills that will not let the bear suffer, and yet offer meat to those in need. This is how nature takes it&#039;s course.</description>

		<description>When an out of control hungry bear population learns that there is ample food supply inside humans homes they will start breaking into homes.  By the way they can tare a door of with ease.  Then when someone gets in their way a person gets mauled.  That&#039;s when everyone blames government agencies for allowing it to happen and not protecting us.  Suddenly those cute cuddly bears aren&#039;t so cute.  Allow the bear hunt to control the population and don&#039;t feed the surviving bears.  Common sense measures aren&#039;t always warm and fuzzy.</description>

		<description>And don&#039;t forget, the claws can be sold (I think, dunno about the legalities) as a nice necklace, on a leather thong to keep that woodsman authenticity! Mwahaha! :D</description>

		<description>Awesome! I wanna try some bear meat! I&#039;ve read online that roasted, with most of the fat removed before cooking, makes a nice meal with a sort of roast beef flavor.

Also, I was thinking that the skins could be used to make coats for the poor. The head skin, hollowed out &amp; cured properly, could make a nice attached hoodie. Now that would make a nice warm coat! :)</description>

		<description>I think it&#039;s great. Bears are dangerous and if they get hit by a car or a motorcycle due to over population lives could and have been lost including the Bears. Also to top it all off, Florida gets to charge hunters for something else. That&#039;s one reason I don&#039;t hunt in Florida anymore even though I live here. You can&#039;t just go buy a hunting license and hunt. You have to buy a stamp for just about everything you want to hunt including a license and a management stamp. Before its all over the next thing we will have to give more money to the state for will be if we are going to use a ladder, lock on, climbing stand or a bucket, they just haven&#039;t thought about it yet. I say as long as you plan on eating and using everything you can from the bear have at it but of course there needs to be a limit and size limit. Good luck</description>
