Grizzly Bear 148 shot dead by hunter

[LPC]

Yes, very sad. But at least Canada is moving in the right direction (towards banning of trophy hunting). As far as I can ascertain after a search of the net, trophy hunting of grizzly bears remains fully legal in Alaska, USA - and there no signs of that being changed. Worse, in Maine, USA, trapping of other bears (a particularly cruel way of catching bears, as they can be in severe pain for days until the hunter returns) remains legal.
