Why don't we just exterminate all bears?
Obviously it wouldn't be politically correct, but I don't understand why we have to put our lives at risk camping/hiking in the mountains with these animals lurking around. I think people are genuinely afraid of them (I am, anyway) and if you're not you probably should be.
I'm pretty sure that their populations are small enough that it wouldn't have that big of an impact on the ecosystem if we "took care of them."
Anyway, I'm sure my opinion on this won't be popular, but I would be much happier and we would all be safer if we just killed every last bear.
