Someone met a grizzly today near my place. They were life flighted to the hospital. No details yet other than location, Yellow Mule trail near Big Sky. It is a popular mountain biking trail, the last person mauled there was mountain biking. Lets get a season on these things so they have some fear of man again. We are covered up with them.

Mountain biking?
Let's not be too hasty on that season.

I'd wager many who own those places in Big Sky are stalwart supporters of even higher grizzly population and permanent moratorium on hunting them.

Timbermaster: You are right on with your call for a Grizzly season here in Montana - it's LONG overdue! I am stilled miffed though at the lawsuits the "bozoman" (Bozeman!) liberals filed putting a now 3 year long "hold" on Hunting Wolverines. Sad the number of humans being hurt and kill't of recent by Grizzly Bears, hereabouts. I hope that human from your reported incident recovers. Hold into the wind VarmintGuy

A lot of the folks that have lived here the longest know damn well those bears need hunted. A neighbor shot one in his dog pen years back and was a local hero. Interviewed on the news.

We had a couple of bow hunters put one down near island park the other day with their side arms. The idaho fish and game ruled it self defence but I hope the feds don't come after them anyways. The grizzlies are thick in island park. My 11 year old and I have cow tags there in December. I'm bringing some smaller rifles for him bit winder if I should carry something larger. Maybe my seeking element 7 prc at a minimum.

I’m surprised at how many signs I have seen from Bozeman to Glacier that say “Relist the wolf”, “Save the howl” . I bet that I have seen a dozen of them.

Related news: The grizzly that killed the woman outside of West Yellowstone this summer broke into someone’s house after dog food. Captured and killed. They’re looking for a zoo to place the cub, prob’ly shoulda just killed it too. https://amp.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/sep/07/grizzly-bear-yellowstone-killed-amie-adamson

So, I wonder if they would consider hunting the bears from a vantage point overlooking the bike trail would be considered "hunting over bait," once a season is established again.

You will never see another lower 48 grizzly season. The anti's made some mistakes with their pet wolves and they got taken off the endangered list. Wolves are now game animals in several states. They leaned from their mistakes. They got the griz hunt stopped a couple years ago and they learned how to play the courts and judges. How many people are killed by them is irrelevant. Animals are more important than people to this bunch.

Gotta buy more stock in the companies that make backhoe equipment. Cattle ranchers will know how to deal with this as the beast try to move back to the east.

Until they do open a season on them this will continue. So, until then I have a hard time of finding a F U C K to give.

Hard to do much besides piss and moan about problems on public property. On my property I'm not putting up with anything harassing my family or possessions.

Osky That's what I was thinking. All a season means is one more tag to buy. Screw that, state gets enough of my money.
