  1. I'm not quite sure to whom a comment written here is to be directed but it is my intention to direct it at Bear Trust International. My accusation is that you are people enslaved to corporate profits. Your "real agenda" amounts to nothing more than protecting these profits.

    Fortunately,even a blind person can see that you are belied by your own statistics, as "dummied up" as they are. The Yellowstone ecosystem, according to THEM IS 34,375 acres. According to the (in-your-hip-pocket) folks at the USFWS, there are 717 grizzlies in this ecosystem.

    Fortunately, a few of us passed third grade division. According to YOUR statistics, this means that there is ONE grizzly in the ecosystem approximately every FIFTY square miles.

    Accordingly, your claim that this is "overpopulation" is a claim that is absurd on its face.

    You don't want the grizzlies roaming your oil producing properties because government regulation which is sure to follow will make extraction more expensive. You don't want grizzlies on your cattle producing property because half of that is FEDERAL land where "grazing rights" to private interests have been the biggest form of "corporate welfare" in the states of Wyoming and Montana for decades.

    And, of course, some "hunters" want to kill (just about anything) because that's the only way they can continue to delude themselves about their own masculinity. There is no "sport" to hunting a grizzly. The individual intent on killing it will find what it's eating, put the cross-hairs on it and pull the trigger from a quarter mile away. What wonderful "conquests" those will be.

    The claim that grizzlies are "overpopulated" is pure bunk. Oil and cattle in Wyoming and Montana are behind the delisting movement like they've been behind everything since the inception of both states.
    True to form, mindless killers are more than eager to help oil and cattle carry out their agenda.

    Stop the charade.
