Bears in NJ

It's been a fun year here with bears. Tons of my friends have had black bears coming in and out of their back yards. Finally this month they let hunters go in and hunt them. I'm not sure how I feel, since we are cutting down their homes for our million dollar houses and huge yards, nobody ever plays in or uses, just for looks. Anyway the hunters hunted down 589 bears in our county! I didn't realize we had that many by us.
