Black Bears food tupelo, saw palmetto, blueberry


9 Investigates: Is Florida's bear hunt necessary?

It started out being 250 bears?

Now it is up to 320?


Black Bears food tupelo, saw palmetto, blueberry are being gathered up and sold faster than it can grow!

But 9 Investigates discovered that FWC doesn’t know exactly how many bears live in the state.

“Most animal populations should be estimated every generation, which is roughly every eight years for bears,” said Sarah Barrett, of FWC’s Black Bear Management Program. “We have updated numbers on four of the subpopulations and are collecting the data for the remaining three subpopulations.”

“If they’re going to hunt, they may as well kill them all because they have nothing to eat,” Lake County resident David Baumgardner said.

Baumgardner’s family has lived in Lake County for three generations. He said his family has always shared the land with the bears, but recently they have had far more interactions.

“I have seen more bears, morning, noon, afternoon and night in the past six years as the bears scurry about trying to find native food sources than I have in the previous 65 years,” Baumgardner said.

Bear Clan Native Americans


 

 
Welcome São José do Rio Prêto, Sao Paulo Brazil


To one of our

Black Bear Clan sites


I believe that just about, if not every tribe through-out Indian Country has a

"Bear Clan?"

Our village (tribe) changed the Bear Clan somewhat in the early 1940's thanks in part to a youngster being a youngster.


The land that our Mohiigan's call home has many Black bears also living in and around the land.

We call them our neighbors and they look it is as their land also.

When our ancestors arriver there were many more animals, bears included.

However, since first contact their as with our families have been to a point or almost extinct!

Un-like the Black Bear, we are being called 'extinct' by this government and most Reservation Indians because thousands of our elders/ancestors were declared extinct by either "Rape" or "Marriage and no longer being called "Mohiigan or any other tribe for that matter?"

The Black Bear is systematically becoming extinct because they are in the way!

Come to think about it, so are we?

Do not mistake adaptation and survival with "going extinct".

We are simply learning to beat you at your own game.

The bear family is being extinct because of being killed!

BLACK BEAR HUNTING


BLACK BEAR HUNTING
The state of Florida still has no idea of how many Black Bears are in Florida?

No limit on how many hunting permits are to be sold by the state of Florida starting on August 3rd for a October hunt?


No restrictions of where a hunter is coming from?

No bear hunting in the area where humans refuse to control their trash, stop leaving their pet food out all day and night and/or stop feeding the bears?

The hunters can come to our neighborhood to shoot our bears with a high powered weapon with a silencer.

Do you know how far a bullet can travel fired from someplace around our home/your?

Depending who you ask, between 1 and 15 miles.

Our town is 3.4 square miles and people have been hunting inside of this for years! :-(

What this means to my family and any family in a small town anywhere around this

"Bear Slaughtering Grounds!"

"When anyone gets a gun buys a permit and shoots?"

"We are all in the line of fire from their bullets!"

Guess this does not matter as long as our politicians get their kick-backs?
P.S.
Our town is a minimum, 45 miles from the towns with a bear problem?

Can your pet do this?


A true "Believe it or not."

This morning at play Breanna's mom found an unused string tie pouch and gave it to Breanna for play after tying four knots and pulling them tight.




 within minutes she, Breanna, had untied the knots.

Mom did this a few more times and each time Breanna untied the knots.
So Dad, the old navy salt, tied the knots with four square knots, same deal. so I tried it with one square, one granny, one square, and one granny knots,

 same thing Breanna holds the pouch with the two front paws and untied the knots with her teeth!

She has been doing this to by native bandanna's for years.



Give it a try, I dare you?

Nick Wiley, "Speak with Forked Tongue!"


 
Wildlife officials approve weeklong bear hunt in Florida

By now most of you already know what animal lovers in Florida knew for about two years.

Surprise, surprise, Surprise!
"Money talks and the public's voice gets stomped under by the payoff!"
Nick Wiley, the head of Fish and Wildlife Commission,
 "Speak with Forked Tongue!"
is a
"Big Fat Boldface Liar!"
Because he promised, Absolutely
"NO BEAR KILLING IN FLORIDA!"

Not more they one year ago, of course this was before money started floating around all over South Florida.

P.S.

No hunting will be in or around this wealthy gated community that keeps feeding bears and leaving trash and dog food out at night!

The hunting will be in woods of the "Innocent Black Bears!"


They arrived at the Sarasota Hyatt Regency in dress clothes, camouflage ball caps and weatherproof fishing shirts. One wore a fuzzy bear costume. Sometimes they were civil, ticking off statistics as to why hunting black bears is a good or bad policy. At other points they were biting, heckling a 15-year-old girl and tossing around words like blood, carnage and corruption.

"Some good ol' boys already had their minds made up," said Avery Cobbs, 48, of Orlando, who wore the bear suit. "Unfortunately it didn't matter, and it's a huge loss."

Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission executive director Nick Wiley said after the 5-1 vote that he thought the commission did the right thing. The approval means Florida is set to have a one-week, daytime bear-hunting season in four regions in October for the first time since 1994.

"It was a really tough decision for the commissioners," Wiley said. "I believe they listened to a lot of passionate input."

About 80 people spoke at the meeting during a comment period that stretched over six hours. One woman said she wore red to symbolize the blood of bears, another taped a sheet of paper to her chest with only two words: "Dead Bear."

"This public wants you to keep your grubby mitts and guns off of black bears," said Carol Abarbanell, 68, of Englewood.
