    You always hear about bears being removed if they get too close to
    people so why wouldn't that be done here? Something isn't adding up.

    Given I live on the edge of a forest and have had two incidents in the
    last 18 months where I've had to repair our fence on account of damage
    by bears this is something I'm interested in. (The bear or bears
    certainly don't live in my home but have damaged my yard)

    A perversion of landlord-tenant law? Your state wins this round, but I
    have a feeling you won't compete with Mamdani who will not only freeze
    the bear's rent but give him free bus fare.

    I loved that the reporter is an evil white racist for emphasis that it's
    a black bear.

    Would you be happier if it were a polar bear?
