Bear Hunting in the
Bears backyard?
Watch and see?
Our Black Bears in
Florida have no pockets!
The hunters in and
around Florida have deep, deep, deep, pockets and many of Florida officials are
hunters!
Care to guess who is
going to win the vote?
We already know that
there will be a hunt, we do not know for how long this hunt will go on?
The Florida Fish and
Game Commission will meet in Tallahassee April 14-16. Among the items on the
agenda for action on April 15 is a proposal to establish a hunting season for
black bears, starting in the fall of 2015.
In response to
growing concerns about a rising number of black bear attacks in the state in
recent years, the commission instructed its staff to bring forth a proposal
that would establish hunting as a management tool for controlling the
population. The resulting proposal, which will be presented to the commission
on April 15, would establish a seven-day hunting season with harvest objectives
established based on regional bear management units. The first season would
occur October 24-30. The commission would not restrict the number of permits
sold, but would instead utilize a quota system and each bear management unit’s
season would be subject to strict harvest objectives.
Remember this
posting after next week when the Fish and Wild votes on hunting our Black
Bears!
OK I answered
today's comments so far, if you had a strange answer it was, in part, because I
answered anyone that wrote on the post that you wrote on to save time, my body
is still upset with me because of the accident no matter who was at fault!
