Dead meat!
"A peculiar virtue in wildlife ethics is that the hunter ordinarily has no gallery to applaud or disapprove of his conduct.  Whatever his acts, they are dictated by his own conscience, rather than that of onlookers.  It is difficult to exaggerate the importance of this fact"

If your going to shoot that bear you are going to watch out for his mom still being around as he will surely still be on her tit.

Not to sound like a richard but that bear looks as big or bigger than half the bears guys kill and post up on this site in Washington :chuckle: I think there are a lot of guys that never see bears and will kill the first one they see.

Yeah. Don't shoot the weened cubs. I doubt he's two years old. Nice color, but small. Let him grow.

Bathrooms need rugs too!
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.
