That is one of the dumbest things I have ever read!

The population of black bears has been on the rise for decades — it’s more than doubled in the past 20 years alone — and needs to be reined in, according to the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission. The obvious solution is getting hunters to hunt more of them. The trick, however, is getting the formula right.
Nope we have too many relocated folks of the northern kind lol!
.... unless they are killed by other black bears ....#blackbearlivesmatter
Exploding bear population in the mountains? If memory serves, the black bear population has just recently began to come back in the mountains. For a long time, if I asked someone where they thought the best place to hunt a bear is, it was somewhere near the coast.

We've always had a big bear population. That doesn't take away from the fact that best areas to hunt are still down east. For one the terrain is easier. 2nd, the bears on the coast are also bigger because mild winters allow them the ability to not have to hibernate thus allowing them to forage all year and thus making bears on the coast, some of the biggest black bears in the country.
Killing a Bear in a field is easy in the east. Until you have crawled in the wax myrtles and shot one from 5 feet, or had one trample you in a tunnel with no weapon, and drug a 500lb one out of that nasty mess by hand, you wouldn't say it was easier.
The hunting is better in the east. More animals and bigger animals. But all private. Better know someone, have Bear dogs or deep pockets.
