I think this is something important to us as beekeepers. Every bear taken by hunters may stop one of us from losing bees and equipment. There have always been bears moving through but it seems that the sightings are more in the last few years.
Read more about it and voice your support to the proposed hunting season. I could not get the ( add a comment ) links to work so I sent an e-mail. They will need your address and county.
