‘Our vision is to create a Florida where people and wildlife coexist in balance and mutual respect.’
lol, what????? Mutual respect? These ppl aren’t living in reality.
I blame Disney. People have totally misguided and unrealistic views of wild animals. All kinds of animals, wild and domesticated.
Thrse people need to study up on what happened to Timothy Treadwell
Those who oppose the hunt can have the bears relocated to their back yard.
"I turn humans into scat, what's your Superpower?"
I do have some sympathy for the idea that human expansion into more and more wildlife areas is forcing animals, including bears, into more frequent contact with humans. Bears, like other predators, need a certain amount of territory to survive and that is being shut off at least in the Eastern US.
Liberals are stupid. They look at bears with the same romanticism they look at wetbacks. The more the merrier.
I’m surprised living here in Florida, we don’t have a Monkey Hunt to cull a growing population of primates that carry herpes.
We have a significant monkey population in the Ocala National Forest area, especially around rivers and springs.
We have full time python hunters in the Everglades, we now have bear hunt to cull the herd, why not a monkey hunt as well.
“ Our vision is to create a Florida where people and wildlife coexist in balance and mutual respect.”
How does one teach the concept of respect to a bear?
L
What a frivolous lawsuit. I hope the court ordered this “charity” to pay fees.
The other option is to create a Florida eco-tourism office which caters to the left in the state & encourages them to go out, hike/camp & enjoy nature...
I’m good with that ;-)

I don't know but it would be interesting
to see what goes on down the line if the
humanoids become the masters in total.
I recall driving east across Hwy 70 one morning. A bear was belly up on the shoulder. A few yards later, a 10+ft gator was belly up on the highway shoulder. I suspect the two were wrestling, and neither saw the truck that hit them.
Clint Howard, of course.
If you could train the bears to eat just pythons .......
About 300 bears are killed every year in Florida in vehicle collisions.
Black bear is good eating, the fat is second to none for pastry and biscuits and pie crusts. Sous vide @ 160F for at least 30 min kills any parasites stone cold dead without making the steaks shoe leather. Crockpot the fat and trimmings filter the oil through a coffee fabric not paper coffee filter it’s wonderful white fat. It can be people if they have been eating berries if it’s blue that’s warfarin it’s poison the whole animal is wasted then.
People = purple
