Because the bear would enjoy his newly found disability entitlements?

Bear meat tastes just like beef if you cook it to rare and not more. FLL could have stocked his freezer for the winter for free if he had volunteered to pick up that bear in the road to "take care" of it.

This graphic has been posted on this forum before, but is relevant here. An analysis of road-kill in Moultonborough over the past 20 years or so, show a rise in deer kill in October till April, with March the peak. Be careful out there.

IMO, Bear meat is absolutely terrible, no matter how it is cooked!

If you want something that tastes like beef, I need to get you some of the Elk that I came home with 2 weeks ago from Colorado, now that is good stuff!

All wild game should be cooked to Medium Rare, MAX! Rare is perfect and takes most of the game taste out.

Elk meat is good and you can kill it too by not cooking it right. Just like deer.

I had bear once and it is tough as a shoe. Not sure if this is the norm or bad cooking. I will take your word for it.

Researchers for the Massachusetts Turnpike Authority found over 200 dead crows near greater Boston recently, and there was concern that they may have died from Avian Flu. A Bird Pathologist examined the remains of all the crows, and, to everyone's relief, confirmed the problem was definitely NOT Avian Flu. The cause of death appeared to be vehicular impacts.

However, during the detailed analysis it was noted that varying colors of paints appeared on the bird's beaks and claws. By analyzing these paint residues it was determined that 98% of the crows had been killed by impact with trucks, while only 2% were killed by an impact with a car.

MTA then hired an Ornithological Behaviorist to determine if there was a cause for the disproportionate percentages of truck kills versus car kills.

The Ornithological Behaviorist very quickly concluded the cause: when crows eat road kill, they always have a look-out crow in a nearby tree to warn of impending danger. They discovered that while all the lookout crows could shout "Cah", not a single one could shout "Truck."
