Unlike you, the bears will get through the holiday's relatively unscathed.
The state’s controversial bear hunt has wrapped up for 2022 and the final tally is just 113 bears taken, lower than any hunt in recent memory. Your reaction to this news is largely dependent on wether or not you are a bear.
There are a bunch of reasons for the low numbers from this year’s hunt. After shelving the hunt for a few years, Gov. Murphy reinstated it for 2022 after an uptick in human/bear encounters. Only thing is, he waited to reinstate the hunt until later in the year when most bears have decided to power down for the season. Fewer bears wandering about the forest or mauling your garbage cans means fewer bears were shot.
