Depends on how the animal is classified under the law,here. At one time bears were classified as furbearers,and as such there was no requirement to take the meat,but you could be charged if you let the pelt spoil. Now though,bears are classified as big game animals,and as such you can toss the hide.but you will be charged if you let the meat spoil.

For the most part. It should be kill what you will use.
You may think before you act. The question is did you listen to your own council?

There is a big bear wandering in town here last couple nights. Have to put the cage out before some teenager gets mauled.

They extended the bear season here for the outfitters,starts aug 15.I pity the guy who is hunting for a rug at that time of year. Not many locals here hunt bear,and when they do it is for the meat. Personally,when I want a bear I wait until the hides are nice,either Oct. or spring,and I use the hides and the meat. Back in the day when I commercially hunted bears for their hides I always salvaged some meat,although it was not mandatory then. Most of the outfitters catering to the tourist hunters tossed the carcasses in the dump. Nuisance bears nowadays that return after being caught once wind up in the dump. Shame really,bear meat is excellent and very good for you when cooked properly.

Pretty hard for a bear to prime up under those conditions.

Posco our season also starts on September first. I have been asking our fish and wildlife board to extend our bear season thru our December muzzle loading season. We have a very large bear population. I saw five during spring turkey season. Not many hunters will shoot them here. The wildlife board members tell me it’s political that they can’t extend the bear season. The public thinks the bears are endangered.

You've probably heard of our bear referendums? The anti's have twice tried to shut bear baiting down with no success. They'll keep trying. Our season runs through the month of November and a few bear are taken as incidentals by deer hunters during that month. I wish they would push the baiting season back at least a month. I don't know the rationale for having it so early, the hides certainly aren't what anyone would consider prime.

Pretty hard for a bear to prime up under those conditions. Our season always starts September 1 and ends October 15. None get truly prime but some get nice at the end. Many changes here in those last few weeks making it more difficult to keep a big boar around and visiting in daylight. Best to keep the baits full and check daily for the big wanderers. Make sure to hunt them second night they visit. Osky

I like it and don't waste any of it. The main thing is know the rules of the state you are hunting in and follow them. Our season opens Aug. 30 hide isn't prime but meat is excellent. The season closes Oct. 31 which is ok as most years all the bear are denned up by then.

I don't think those big bears are too palatable,unlike a nice savory blackbear. I know the Cree don't eat the polar bears that wander into the goose camps up on the bay.
