A complicated issue about what goes to the heart of the spirit of conservation. Wildlife is a Public Trust. "Essentially, no individual owns the wildlife of the land. Instead it’s owned collectively by the public and managed by the national and state governments as a resource for everyone. In other words, if you own land, you don’t own the wildlife on it. "
Are there rigorous scientific studies on the bear populations regarding the predator/prey numbers and relationships?
The Public deserves transparency into the various studies and financial reasons behind bringing back the bear hunt. Otherwise, it feeds cultural divisiveness and ignorance about the concerns from both sides.
