Bring forth my torch and pitchfork.
Just kidding, but hopefully this will help bring the bear hunt back.

I heard it was back ...but I guess I still hadn't been voted on?
Florida may allow 187 black bears to be hunted in December
Florida hunters may celebrate this holiday season with three weeks of bear hunting.

These are such incredibly rare events that a hunt would not be likely to have any impact.
Oh really?

Yes really. We should hunt bears if there are enough to justify a sustainable harvest. Justifying it on the potential for them to kill humans is a huge reach given how rarely it happens.

Has there ever been an analysis done of the % of bear attacks that involve a dog. Seems like you are WAY more at risk if you have a dog with you than if you don't.

First thing I thought when reading this was that this man might still be alive if it weren’t for the dog.

All the tree huggers like to stop the bear hunts down here until one ends up chasing their kids up the sidewalk. Or they run into one in the garage on their way to the spa…. Meanwhile they keep building houses.
