Bear Attacks

Description

This is a discussion about bear management - particularly in areas where bear habitat and human settlement overlap. Bear attacks on people are on the increase. Many people do not agree with killing problem bears but the wildlife service lacks the ability to live-trap and transplant every problem bear. As a result, hundreds are shot each year. What to do?
