I can't imagine how a black bear can get that big. That thing is a giant! A 300 lb black bear is a big bear, but getting 5-6-700 lbs is hard to believe.
In some mountain states they actually drop fliers from planes in popular hunting areas to let you know quotas have been met.I just read that there are quite a few bears of that size here in Florida. They were left alone and don't hibernate much so they are getting huge. That's why Florida decided to open hunting season again. My question is how they will end the season at a certain number. How many hunters go out for a week and have no way to get updates about the season being closed?
I'll bet the bears are relieved when they read those fliers.In some mountain states they actually drop fliers from planes in popular hunting areas to let you know quotas have been met.
