California Considers Grizzly Reintroduction Plan That Could Use Wyoming Bears
Cowboy State Daily ^ | 12 March 2026 | Mark Heinz

"For decades, reintroducing grizzlies to California seemed unrealistic. Now, California lawmakers are considering a plan that could relocate Yellowstone grizzlies there. One skeptic says, "I don’t think it’s feasible. There’s 40 million people in California."

I knew that it would only be a matter of time before some well-intentioned retard would entertain such an idea!

I reckon these people don't think that these critters might find their way to human population centers.

And, of course, you won't be able to hunt these monstrous predators; so, they'll have no fear of humans.

I'm dumbfounded!

“California is the antithesis of good ideas.”

Oregon giving cali a run for their money when it comes to stupid ideas what with their moronic efforts to ban hunting AND fishing.

Getting rid of grizzlies was a long, bloody, deadly human struggle, and now we have become so detached from nature that we are going to invest our taxes and hire experts to bring them back to restart the deadly struggle.

Don’t let the title fool you. They want to ban commercial meat production also.

Hollywood and San Francisco would be my first choices.

For Rob Reiner’s son, I just want him released with an ankle bracelet tied to a Hollywood and surrounding area geofence.

How about requiring the legislators to also include a line that they they themselves must wear bear attractant and be required to witness the introduction of. Grizzlies? They’d be great decoys protecting the citizens of california.

I predicted this 25 years ago. The bears won’t survive the way these idiots have managed vegetation. They’ll starve, and will need to raid inhabited areas to eat.

This all part of the Agenda 21 real estate racket designed to force people out of rural areas into cities living in tenements of the future at a fat profit. In my first book, I called the plan, “The Squeeze.”

Might as well put Great White sharks in public pools while they are at.

Yes, put them in all the cities and declare them homeless.
That should clear out a few homeless sites.

Why do you think that's "good"? Do you think it would "protect Nature"? If so, you are dead wrong.

Introducing them in LA and SF would significantly reduce the homeless problem...
