"More than 100 demonstrators, including a few wearing bear costumes and carrying stuffed bears, protested Saturday on Route 23 at the corner of Canistear Road to oppose the upcoming bear hunt. Chanting "Kill the Hunt. Not the bears," and holding signs saying "Bullets are not science," the protesters stood on both sides of the highway encouraging motorists to honk their car horns in support."

The First Environmental President Theodore Roosevelt (who was a Republican) went on a bear hunt while in office and managed to bag one. To commemorate the event, an American toy company created a cloth animal stuffed with feathers and called it the "Teddy Bear".

My how things have changed....

Excellent point. And last year, Kerry went goose hunting and not a word was heard from the antis. Imagine if this President went hunting?
