Bear baiting was made illegal by initiative.

In Washington it was voted by the people that gay marriage, is ok! Marijuana is alright, and abortion is fine! BUT hunting bears and cougars with hounds or bait is morally wrong! go figure! lol

Democracy can suck pretty hard when your state has a liberal, urban majority. 
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.
