Does the proposal consider all aspects of the situation? How certain can you be that there won't be baiting or a mother killed who has cubs treed or elsewhere while she forages. If we were talking about a dog hunt would you go for it? Hunting opportunities? In this era of climate change (whether made by us or not - let's not argue that - let's just face the reality before us) can we condone the culling of this/that/the other species one year or over several, when a looming situation such as wildfires might happen. Surely these hunters can find other means of entertainment, than slaughtering animals. A billion animals are gone in Australia now. Unless it is at our doorstep, our apathy is amazing to me. This is a small blue marble planet, and it is the only one we have. A trophy on a wall, obtained through unfair technology. Of course the bear will lose. But, so do we. You just don't know it (yet). Or you choose to ignore it for immediate reasons.
