"...Why do we need 3,000 bears running around in New Jersey?..."
That's just the point. There are plenty of people in the state of New Jersey who have been there LONG before these fearless bears arrived. The animal-rights crackpots want to have everyone believe the overpopulation problem can be resolved by properly sealing garbage cans, banging on pots and pans, and nonsense like that.

Eventually, it will be a risk to go outdoors. Wait til they have a lion and other predator overpopulation.
