Bear hunt starts today.
Thanks to all the monitors, documenters, Chuck O Neal and everyone that has spoken out to what we know in our hearts is a mess. A big bloody mess.
I was very proud to read through the list of permits and find only one person in Martin County bought a permit.
This was CBS national news who got most of the story wrong calling every against animal activists. Thank goodness they put in that bit about Ron Bergeron. CBS we are citizens of Florida and we have an opinion and we have a right not to be pigeon holed. I don’t see any where to leave comments. The Hunt is all over Florida.

My issue as I have stated before is not hunting bears. There are bear hunts and other places seem to know how to do this. Florida does not and the agenda is driven by the Governor who is driven by his masters. We have seen this behavoir last winter at SFWMD and even lately when they tried to do the right thing and keep taxes the same.
The head of agency was replaced by a hack and taxes were lowered. Enough to go buy a cup of coffee at Starbucks for most of us but if your a big company you really benefit from this.
Then of course if you collect less money you can’t fix anything and our state will end up underwater, totally degraded, without an ounce of wildlife.
These people are depending on no one paying attention. What’s the plan for Miami underwater? Who benefits anyway?
Back to the hunt.
This hunt is politically motivated bought and paid for like the rest of Florida.
This is an issue that everyone should be able to come together on. But they can’t because they cannot see the big picture. Some can. Most can’t.
You all have to stop calling people names and find some common ground and if you want this do it as a state. Leave out HSUS and amoland and the Safari Hunters International and all these animal rights groups. Yes on both sides. This is a Florida issue and we need to fight for ourselves. Non of these people are our friends.
I just saw photos of a house in the Ocala National Forrest with garbage all over the place. I asked for permission to post and I will when I get it I will. Bear appetizers. Why not just fine these people? Oh. I forgot this is Florida. D’uh.
This is a great video to watch. It’s all about sex! The male black bear wants to create a family with someone else besides their sister. If the Black bear mate among themselves they will for sure become extinct.
All I can do today is say a prayer.
So here is your Jewish girl prayer for the bears
Please lets all say a prayer for the bears.
Good St. Francis, you loved all of God’s creatures.
To you they were your brothers and sisters.
Help us to follow your example
of treating every living thing with kindness.
St. Francis, Patron Saint of animals,
watch over the Florida Black Bear
and keep them safe and healthy.
Amen.
