He was not Welcome in Germany.

The best way to bring in a bear is a dozen hot dogs on the grill and several open bags of Doritos.

Still, "beaver managers" are now able to smooth the waters between farmers and animal protection groups.

"That's correct ma'am...I'm a licensed Beaver Manager."

In Germany anything that is not registered will be shot on site!

I've got plenty bears in my neighborhood. They are welcome to all they can catch. Put out some sunflower seeds and they'll be around shortly.
:(

Opinions were divided about just how dangerous Bruno was. Some animal protection groups believed the bear was harmless to humans. Other bear experts agreed that he could have attack if provoked.

Our grizzly bear is a subspecies of brown bear. Grizzly bears that rampage about killing livestock and wandering around human habitation are definitely dangerous.

Sorry, Bruno.

I think they did the right thing. But this strikes me as par for the course the Europeans/Greens.

"You must take care of your environment! Der little animals are zo cute! Tink uff der baby seals, you heartless Americans!"
"Karl, der ist a bear eating one uff your sheep!"
"Ach du Lieber! Somebody shoot dat ting!"

"Now that he has been shot to death, other bears might just think twice about whether they will roam the German-Austrian border.............".

Uh yeah, sure, because every one who knows anything about bears' well-known ability to reason and read maps is sure that the bears will certainly make an informed decision to stay away from where their cousin got shot....

You know, this was a pretty interesting story until that parting shot. What an idiot.

The cause of death ...

And I, Bruno, will dive 1,000 feet into a block of cement. On my head, yet.

"Laws protecting endangered species prohibit normal hunters from killing the bear..."

...so who'd they get to do it? I have this mental image of the German version of the hillbillies from "Deliverance"...

Only when bears in different areas begin "networking" can they optimally mix their genes and multiply properly, wildlife experts say. The European Union is supporting a so-called "LIFE Program" in Austria, Italy and Slovenia that aims to expand the bear population in the Alps.

Sounds like they need an animal dating service.

If only we had made friends with the bear. Vicious wild animals are our friends and it's only our failings that prevent them from reaching out and EATING US becoming best buddies.
