my thoughts on shooting the bear.
Hmm, bet you have to prove it was the actual bear, and why did you have a large caliber firearm in an area inhabited by game in the off season?
Some CO's very reasonable, some, not so much.
They should have got it in writing.
Get a C-can, they are not getting in that, also very good at keeping the human, aholes out.
And how does one get that into a camp that is atv access only? Lol
They marked their bear one year, They left a spray can on a rope with peanut butter on it.
Of course any passing bear might have bitten it, but after that, the raids stopped for two years. Spray paint was everywhere. Must have been a colourful bear.
Have some neighbors like that around hereNeighbor feeds birds & bears

Maybe try that with a can of bear spray. The problem is getting the right bear. You'd pretty much have to catch it in the act. If I was sure it was the right bear I'd have no problem disposing of it under a 3-S program.
This is actually a good idea, because a can of bear spray could be left inside the cabin where only the suspect bear would get it. Of course after a bit the mice would clean off the peanut butter. But it would still smell enough for a bear to bite it.
If there's a bear in your camp, there's going to be a hell of a mess. Bear spray, as long as it's not near the beds, would only improve the smell. Our kitchen is in a separate room, to keep cooking smells away from the hunters.do you really want that going off inside the camp?
