For decades, a spring season was permitted. Officials report historically, about 6,000 hunters applied and of that group, 600 received permits. At most, 150 bears were harvested.
“It’s a highly coveted hunt because it’s a good time of year,” said Assistant Director of the Wildlife Program, Eric Gardner. “There’s not a lot of other hunting opportunity at that time of year.”

One of the commissioners felt the need to bring up her attendance at a drag show as a comparison to conflicting parties on the new conservation policy proposal.... :bash: :bash: :bash: :bash:
