There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

The Hunter guides who are the antagonists on the show are hired to track the bear then the hunter gets to kill it. The object is to find the largest bear you can, for obvious reasons. They "stumble" across a whale carcass with a lone bear on it. This bear had run off all other bears and he was sleeping on the carcass. These hunters then treked to the highest point and shot this unsuspecting bear. It was disgusting, but any way, the bear was so large they had to drag it back to camp on the side of their boat before it got dark and they would of had to just leave it there. Either way, its very sad to see this still happeneing.
Such people are simply prisoners of their own obsolete and misguiding tradition. I said it several times and I will say it again and again. Most people stop to use their brain when it comes to tradition. Injustice doesn´t get legitimated just because it has tradition. PERIOD.
The worst thing about it is they try to say they are "controlling population"
and I just wince. How in the world is denying a huge and healthy bear the chance to pass his genes on, good for them?
