Bear with a radio collar?
« on: October 13, 2013, 10:48:59 AM »
So my dad just passed on a big bear because it's wearing a radio collar.

Would you do the same?

Nope.

Has your Dad said why he didn't take the shot?   Did he just not think it was legal because of the collar or was there some other concern?

Just shows your dad is very observant.  There fore a safe and ethical hunter.  As for shooting it. I would in a heart beat.  No laws against it.  The reason it is not is most studies include a survival/ mortality estimate.  Hunting is part of mortality.  Making a law against it would bias information collected.
