Sounds like bear army to me
A man in Alaska had to kill four bears that were trying to get into his house within a 24 hour period. Was his house full of berries and honey?
Big Bear
A big bear is being a nuisance in Nevada. The big bear is over 700lbs! Two gunshot wounds haven't stopped him!

11 year olds with guns
An 11 year old in Idaho shot a bear that wouldn't leave his family's porch.
11 year olds probably shouldn't have guns. But, I guess, if the bear wouldn't leave his family alone, someone had to man up. The police said that this bear was causing problems before too.

Bears vs. Petroleum Development in Alaska
Sarah Palin's replacement is concerned that the US is protecting polar bears because he fears that it may be getting in the way of oil development. I am glad that Canada is at least surveying its polar bear population to see current hunting/development is sustainable. The US should follow suit.

Pretty Boring Bear News
A bear wandered into a La Crescenta neighbourhood (near L.A.) and was tranquilized before being released in the wild. I know that this is pretty mediocre bear news, but the reason that the bear was wandering in the urban environment is because his habitat was destroyed by wildfires.

Man gets attacked, takes it in stride
This is the bear news everyone has been waiting for! Bear attack on Vancouver Island!
A man was walking from his home to his car and was swatted on the head by a black bear in the tree above him. He went flying 10 feet! The bear was eating apples from his apple tree! CUTE and dangerous.

Polar bear hunting
When is it okay?
Basically, each community gets a set number of tags per year. If they have to kill one, it comes out of the tags and the community shares the bear. If the tags get used up but there is an emergency and someone has to kill, it gets taken out of next year's tag. If it is a baby bear, it is only worth half a tag.
