Oh, I know. And a bear that has attacked humans needs to be destroyed. And while I can appreciate the need for thinning, I just don't want to see wholesale slaughter done in the name of human convenience.

It will be a thinning even as a hunt. The number of bear permits will be limited first by the states harvest goals, and second by the unsuccessful hunters.

Destroying bears after they attack toddlers is like prosecuting the terrorists after they blow up the building. It may feel good in a vindictive sense, but it misses the point. We know what bears do, just like we know what terrorists do. Once bears are comfortable in densely populated areas tragedy is inevitible. They must be preemtively destroyed.
