Do people eat bear?

Most definitely. It can be a little greasy but if cooked properly is quite good. It needs a long, long cook time to tenderize it.

If prepared properly its the best. Old Bruins over 400 lbs. are quite gamey. Slice it thin. Marinate and quick cook. Be aware bear still carry trichinosis so cook thoroughly. " No rare bare "

Good afternoon.

I've been told that the liver is loaded with vitamin A and can be toxic to humans. I hope to not find out but I'll let you all know if I do.

My dad shot a bear back in the late 60's and had a beautiful rug made out of it. Unfortunately our cabin was broken into and all the internal furnishings were stolen along with the rug and several of dad's guns........

An expertly done taxidermy job on a bear skin can't be beat.

FWIW, my relatives in Northern Michigan have been big time bear hunters for literally decades. Buying, trading and breeding of good bear dogs has been their hobby forever. Kinda cool if you ask me........
