Trump administration moves to allow hunters to lure bears with bacon, doughnuts

[link:http://www.ktva.com/story/38252328/trump-administration-moves-to-allow-hunters-to-lure-bears-with-bacon-doughnuts|

WASHINGTON -- The Trump administration is moving to reverse Obama-era rules barring hunters on some public lands in Alaska from baiting brown bears with bacon and doughnuts and using spotlights to shoot mother black bears and cubs hibernating in their dens. The National Park Service issued a notice Monday of its intent to amend regulations for sport hunting and trapping in national preserves to bring the federal rules in line with Alaska state law.

Under the proposed changes, hunters would also be allowed to hunt black bears with dogs, kill wolves and pups in their dens, and use motorboats to shoot swimming caribou.

Bear mauls four dogs in Hoonah, gets killed

there bears are waking up so be aware!

A brown bear killed at least three dogs in Hoonah recently before police euthanized it — they feared the bear could have attacked a human next.

The male bear, estimated to between 4 and 5 years old, killed and stashed the remains of at least three dogs in Hoonah since late April, police say. A fourth dog was mauled but survived.
