Moron who wrote the article, or someone at the fish and game who gave the info that this would be "the first Karelian bear dog used for enforcement" in the United States should maybe do a little fact checking.  Dave Wedum of the Montana Fish and Game who trapped and released more Montana grizzlies than anyone else while working for the F&G, was a next door neighbor of mine and he had Karelian bear dogs back in the early 80's.
I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
If I ageed with you, then we'd both be wrong.
You are never to old to learn something stupid.

gotta love this post. where is my free bear tag?

Not entirely true. The state also gave hunters a free bear tag with the license packages and the option for a second tag for $5. Before the ban on baiting you had to by a tag and most hunters did not. With the free tag if they saw a bear while out hunting they now shoot them. The bears in the suburbs are there because the people in the suburbs do not let people hunt them and there is an ample food supply and the ban on hounds has not chnaged that at all.
