There once was a time that those pelts would’ve been worth a fortune in the fur trade.

They finally gave us a black bear season in W.MD.
They had a limit of *30* bears and 200 hunters.
They figured it would go on for days until the 30 bear limit was reached.
The hunt didn’t even last 45 minutes.
If there’s many hundreds of thousands of nearly impassable acres and only 200 hunters, how many freaking bears are actually *here* that 30 of them get capped in less than an hour?

I don’t want to know. I was in town yesterday helping my daughter. My neighbor called, “Are you home? A bear just ran across our front yard toward your place.”. I called my husband, who was on his way into town. He turned around and high-tailed it back home. He never did see the bear, thank goodness.
We saw tracks in the snow up above our house a couple of years ago, but haven’t seen a bear in the 15 years we’ve been here.
All it would take is a President who is worth his salary and it could be so again. Canine fur makes a very warm coat.
Enough to assure that the land is incapable of supporting the people in a crisis and a dangerous place to which to flee.
