Hunters will continue to shoot collared bears because they are wild game, not pets as some of the posters here seem to think. Regardless if the so-called (Dr.) Rogers (see, I called him a fictious name) wishes they were his private bears that he, through social media, chooses to make a ton of money on.

I don't hunt bears, never have. I have friends who do, my father who was in the grocery business processed bear for his friends. And by the way, it is quite tasty, although greasy.

The DNR will prevail, as well they should, as they use science to manage the bear population and keep them healthy.

Those of you that insist on loving bears your way, go to the zoo. In fact, do all of us multi-generational locals a favor and stay at the zoo so we can come and study you. And your so-called (Dr.) Rogers.
