Photo-Hunter Killer: Just the bear facts…

Odd to come across a nature photographer who is also a hunter. Certainly not bizzare; just – unusual. But CNN reports on one such photographer who helped a country singer illegally kill a bear. Making this worse, said singer paid almost $5,000 for the tame black bear. The photographer then brought the bear to his property, where the singer shot the bear with a bow & arrow in cold blood. – Oh, that’s not the end; then the wacky pair made a video to make it look like the bear was shot in the wild. Gotta be some type of REAL MAN to buy a bear, kill it while captive, and then have to fake evidence to make it look like a legitimate hunting kill.

I say, give them both prison & fines, or the option of spending 5 minutes, unnarmed, in a pen with an angry female Alaskan Grizzly.
