Who is eating bears?
- RFK Jr. (roadkill)
- Hunters
- Goldilocks
Probably Libertarians in New Hampshire.
people that want to follow the substance hunting rules.
That's a funny typo 😆
Yeah for real. Bear is so gamey. It's really only worth eating in a stew, cooked until it's beyond well done and falling apart.
Hopefully it was a bunch MAGATs and the bear got the last laugh. RIP Mr. Bear.
Circle of life.

Don’t try to be Kennedy.
Don't try to be that Kennedy.
JFK's daughter Caroline seems to be a basically sensible person.
Is it brain worms?
Kinda. Trichinosis will eat your eyeballs eventually if allowed to progress far enough.
Trichinosis is rumoured to be "what done for" the franklin expedition to find the north west passage.
The Jens Monk expedition lost 62 men to Trichinosis, and returned home with only 3 men alive.

I love reading about these guys, just so courageous. I'm sat here looking at spreadsheets worrying about emails. These guys did the equivalent of flying to mars in a washing machine, battling ferocious martians, succumbing to a war of attrition against a mysterious ailment, before un-dying and coming back home.
I'm vegan but when people question my manhood, I tell them I love eating bear balls and I invite them to a hunt. Then, when we finally find a bear with balls that are worthy of me breaking my veganism, I just run. I usually only invite stupid people who are not more athletic than myself. It works out. Everyone gets a story to tell.
"When coming upon a dragon while adventuring with a halfling, one need not outrun the dragon, only the halfling."
Other than the large number of people, this is not much of a story. Living in a place where bear hunting has a legal season, ( it just finished up here), how to properly cook bear meat is well known. So the risk is virtually zero. This sounds like a case of an ignorant cook serving badly prepared food. Not much different than a cook serving salad greens that were improperly washed and poisoning a large number of people with salmonella.
The moral of the story is: Learn how to cook foods properly with proper sanitation if you are going to serve a bunch of people. And the knowledge of how to it properly is a mere google search away.
Right? This is just poor understanding of food safety. People that practice poor food safety have a higher chance of getting foodborne illness. Shocking.
Wild game especially should be handled with care because it has a higher risk of contamination. If this was an outbreak of Trichinosis from eating undercooked farm raised pigs that would at least be marginally news worthy. Getting it from undercooked wild game is like borderline expected.
Fuck anyone who hunts bears.
There is a natural order to prey and predators.
If you're going to hunt a predator, and it's not for sanctioned wildlife management culls, get a Bowie knife and have at it. Otherwise, I hope you suffer a horrible death.
I'm not anti-hunting, at all. Hunting is easily the most humane way to eat meat. But hunting predators is a sport, not subsistence.
You can pretty much guarantee that anyone who hunts predators for sport, is a gigantic asshole and you should not feel bad about wishing them harm. I would take that statement even further, but I don't want the mods to remove this comment.
To be clear, no one likes bear meat, they're opportunistic scavengers. These bears were hunted for sport most likely, but the hunters were slightly better than your average bear hunting asshole, and at least didn't waste the meat. Most likely because it would be a wasted kill, and illegal.
There is a certain case I advocate bear hunting: bears that gain a proclivity for human environments or for humans as prey. It's rare, though, and can (and should) be handled by wildlife management personnel whenever reasonable.
Yes, I specifically excluded sanctioned/lawful wildlife management practices.
Unfortunately you'll see this a lot with polar bears, which is one of the reasons why proper waste management is so critical in Arctic towns/villages.
Poor waste management practices are capable of attracting more than just polar bears, but they are the most dangerous, for a host of reasons.
