HUNTERS VS. LAW SUITS IN NJ.

[NY Bearhunter]

SOME THING GOOD WAS ON THE NEWS THIS MORNING, BEAR HUNTING IS SET TO GO THIS YEAR, THE NEW GOV. KEPT HIS WORD.

THREATS OF LAW SUITS TO STOP THE HUNT ARE FLYING AROUND, IT WILL BE A BATTLE FOR SURE.


SOON AS THE WEATHER BREAKS I WILL VENTURE THERE FOR A LOOK AROUND AND SET THINGS UP.

ALSO ON THE NEWS IN THE WAWAYANDA , AREA MORE REPORTS AND SIGHTINGS OF A MOUNTAIN LION, THEY DID FIND A TRACK OR TWO BUT THEY SAID IT LOOKED ON THE SMALL SIDE.


GOOD CHANCE TO GET A WORLD RECORD BEAR OUT OF THOSE WOODS AT LEAST GIVE A GOOD RUN AT TOPPING THE PA RECORD.


ANY NJ BEAR HUNTERS OUT THERE...

but I support the Bear Hunt 1000%!

Living in West Milford I see bears all the time, the kids don't even flinch any more when we see them. We see more bears than deer. Its become a serious problem and they need to be culled.

We have Big Male (I'm guessing around 400-500lbs) in our neighborhood that just isn't concerned with human interaction any more... My neighbor walked up to it and started blowing an air horn and it didn't move.

Had a sow & 3 cubs walk 5' from my front door in the fall. With 3 kids under the age of 7 and 9yr old golden with a bad hip, I am concerned for my family. Its only a matter of time...

I don't want them all dead, but the ones that are not afraid of humans (aka Hunters) will be the first culled, it's natural selection. Those that are smart will go deeper into the woods were there is less pressure and human presence. The last time NJ had a Bear hunt, the number of bear/human interactions the following year dropped significantly.

Good luck to those who go looking for bear in December!

thanks for the news, also glad to see you support a hunt. you live in a real good area for bear in between all of that forest land. the bears that you see in your area how far do you think they are from any wooded areas.
