so should you kill every bear/wolf/shark/lion that you come across...because if i seen one in real life i would definitely stay a distance away..but they are still predators..and if we encroached on their territory they would tear us up..
im a firm believer in animals having a brain too...lol they can think and communicate just like we can...so momma bear and her 3 cubs just got shot because they were doing what they had to ..to survive...Where do you think daddy bear is??? stealing picnic baskets?? lolol....no hes probably pretty upset....and thats why animals are afraid of humans, is because we just destroy what we don't like..ignoring the whole fact that these animals are PREDATORS ..and when we invade their territory and they feel threatened...they kill...
Lets say a bear walks in your house, your gonna shoot it...then what? you could eat it...or throw it away..
so lets say you walk in a bears house...hes gonna kill you...and he can either eat you...or let scavengers/decomposes/carrion eaters get you...why waste a good meal??
first off, Poppa Bear prolly don't give a fudge. Male Bears prey on cubs and eat them if they can get ahold of them so......
When an animal feels threatened and attack, they don't usually eat what they are scared of. These Bears were EATING them. They saw what they thought was food, and reacted. They didn't feel threatened, they saw FOOD.
when people=food in an animals mind, we have a problem. From this incedent there would be 4 bears that like human flesh. That is a definite no-no. I personally don't feel right killing anything, but if a bear came into my neighborhood and killed someone and ate them, I wouldn't hesitate to shoot that mofo right there and then.
You can't just relocate them either, because A) they'll find their way back and B) their a threat to attack humans in a different area now.
Oh and that last part makes no sense to me, but whatever.
