CHEYENNE, Wyo. (AP) — A Wyoming hunter faces up to a year in jail and a $10,000 fine if convicted of killing a protected grizzly bear he allegedly claims he mistook for a legal-to-hunt black bear outside Yellowstone National Park.
The male grizzly weighing about 530 pounds (240 kilograms) drew a lot of attention from drivers after its death May 1 near U.S. 14-16-20, the eastern approach into Yellowstone.
I used to hunt geese in the Brazos Bend wildlife preserve. You had to check in with the rangers on the way out as they collected the livers (?) for signs of lead poisoning. We checked in with a couple of geese and the ranger said some poor SOB had showed up with a whooping crane some time before us.
Sometimes you eat the bear. Sometimes the bear eats you.
