How times change... My kinfolk still live in the mountains of NC, and still hunt bear. Now, though they still use the dogs, they also use two-way radios (usually “marine band” rigs) to communicate with each other and to stay on the bear until he is tree’d.

Properly prepared, a good bear roast is some good eating. You have to marinade it for a bit in milk, to take away some of the game taste. Seared and then slow roasted. Served up with roasted potatoes and carrots... A big pan of cornbread... Gotta go - it’s lunchtime.

PS & BTW: There is good money to be made in selling bear gall bladders to the Asian markets...
