Anybody ever heard of the "North American Bear Center"?

Post by mountain top »

I ran across their web page and it looks like they do a lot in terms of bear research, they are in Minnesota and I was just wonder if the were anti hunter or not, I'd like to know if they were friend or foe before possible donating

Foe. They aren't exactly anti hunting but most of their supporters are. They put a Web camera in a den and named one of the Cubs and put a collar on it. A hunter killed that bear a few years later and was being sent death threats from eco weirdos, even though it was completely legal. I think the state has since rescinded his permit to collar bears. I don't believe any of their "research" has been published, peer reviewed, or supplied to the state to help bear management. I'd donate to a hunting organization that gives to bear research instead.
