Lawmakers Mulling Black Bear Hunt

Rubatex Msds State lawmakers have revisited an idea that sparked controversy among animal advocates two years ago: a state-sanctioned black bear hunt. "Science and safety. That is what this issue is all about," John Rigaloso of the New Jersey Farm Bureau told state lawmakers Thursday. "You have some of the best food sources for bears in South Jersey. We are boiling to a situation where there are going to be confrontations. That's the last thing I want. It's coming."

It hoped the new regulations will help stop Vietnam bears being hunted for their gall bladders and other organs, and prevent any more bears ending up on farms.

Rubatex 180 Legislators held the hearings to determine whether the state needs a new management program. Environmentalists cautioned lawmakers against approving any hunt.

For example, one of the important issues is the grizzlies' food supply, so Mr. Moore knew before he started shooting that he needed plenty of material to cover that concern in detail. More than just the bears, the film is about their interactions with humans. And it's about the scientists that study the bears. " odd years we've finally figured out that one of the most important foods for these bears [is elk]." If it took scientists that long to document this behavior, imagine how difficult it must be to observe a hunt, much less get it on tape, much less get a good shot of it on tape. "We actually had to film the bears hunting elk calves in the spring. I think people just don't realize that these nature films, where you're trying to film these grizzly bears actually hunting, take a tremendous amount of time." Specifically, 250 days in the field for this one.
