I think it's because those bears are upsetting the natural element of over development and have to be controlled or next thing you know they'll be eating out of dumpsters and falling on avid outdoorsmen in places called "Bear Den Hollow" and "Bear Tree Lane"

Something gotta be done about that nuciance wildlife for sure.

BTW, if the avid outdoorsman would have understood a bit of geometry he could have saved himself the hassle of dieing but math, what good is it?
