Bear-Man-Sandwich

I'm sure he was thrilled to be laying in his driveway bleeding for an hour before he could get back to the house.

Another good reason to own a dog! maybe he would have had some warning that something was in the area.

I wonder if it was a Boars Head sandwich? lol!
 
It's bad enough to get rabbit punched by a bear, but then to have it steal your sandwich on top of that! Bad form! They should hunt that bear down and teach him some manners!
 
Go to www.foxnews.com and look at the videos 'Hungry Bear Attacks'. He got a cut on his head and bruises all over his body !!! That's Jersey for you, not enough to steal the sandwich he had to beat up the guy .
 
Officers found the sandwich wrapper and remains of the sandwich at the side of the house.

Jersey's so liberal they'll probably just charge the bear with littering :grumpy:

And what's up with the bear not finishing the sandwich, wasn't good enough for him :thumbdn:
 
Black Bears are a nuisance. They need to thin them out in certain areas more than they currently allow. Just my opinion albeit an unpopular one..
 
Jersey's so liberal, it doesn't hunt bears, that's why they wander around town like that. We used to get one now and again.

I think the bear just wasn't real hungry. Otherwise he might have eaten the guy instead of a few bites of the sandwich. :eek:

Unfortunately those bear-hugging liberals will change their tune after it swipes a kids face off with a paw. They'll be shooting them onsite after something like that happens.

A little prevention goes a long way.
 
No, they won't. First of all, the bears really aren't much of a menace statistically, so they don't raise the awareness level enough to generate pressure for a solution to a scarcely existent problem. Second, never underestimate people's ability to blame the victim. "My poor baby" doesn't always generate calls for revenge when the killer is human, let alone when it's a cute warm fuzzy wild thing.
 
From the link that METE provided, there is a photo gallery of about 60 photo's of bears on peoples decks (Cubs with Momma), lifting a dumpster lids with one paw and reaching in for a bag of delicious garbage and pulling garbage out of trashcans stored in garages attacxhed to houses.
Bears are very smart and curious and become dangerous if allowed to eat things they aren't supposed to. At some point they will figure out that the frail looking thing that brings my food to this metal box (dumpster), came out of that big huge box (house).
If they allow bears to continue this behaviour, they will be raiding refridgerators at 3am while you sleep or at 3pm when your kids are home but you aren't.
Just by looking at those photo's, i can see a dangerous situation. Especially one showing Momma and Cubs on a deck raiding a bird feeder that might be just outside the kitchen. One wiff of fresh baked goods flowing out an open kitchen window and your humble abode becomes a daily stop in search of food. They make rounds daily to known food locations.

Take it from whom it comes, a hunting advocate group. Neither side has much of an argument unfortunately. The relevant phrase is "The court determined that the state failed to adopt its comprehensive black bear management policies in accordance with state procedural requirements."

Procedure in place of thinking, sort of like zero tolerance. On the other hand, no, the bears are not ravening predators snatching children off the streets.

More seriously Esav is right- as of right now there is a substantial black bear population but the danger is still only potential. Too many people are too invested in notions of "cute fuzzy critters" to even see, forget act on, the potential problem.

It'll have to get really *really* bad in a really obvious way before the soccer mom closet tree-huggers wake up to realilty.

And yes bears live in my town. Fortunately on the other end of town.
 
Of course there is another aspect to this that NJ doesn't even want in the debate: sport hunting. Is the bear population great enough to allow hunting without damage to the species? Probably, yes.

Casting the hunt only as a bear management problem ignores the history of hunting as a primal experience and as a means of providing food other than packaged porkchops from a supermarket freezer.

Well politics *is* the art of the possible. In NJ if you want a bear hunt at all you have to sell it as management of potentially dangerous wildlife. Then when you have the hunt you can offer the tags to sportsmen.

Trying to sell a hunt as a desirable thing in its own right that the wildlife population can withstand... that would never fly with the soccer moms (of both genders). Abd yes, letting urbanites make decisions regarding wildlife is retarded. But that's NJ. (And yes, NJ's population, even the suburban population, is urban in experience, knowledge and mindset. The suburbs are just filled with people fleeing the cities, is all.)
