Grizzly bear killed in Unit 6

[mike.adams.467]

IDFG ended their investigation into this matter. Apparently, the hunter had shown a trail cam pic of this bear to the local IDFG reps, who told him it was a black bear, so he went back to his bait and shot it.... Story on their home page.

IDFG closed the investigation in the grizz killing. No citation issued. https://idfg.idaho.gov/article/fg-concludes-investigation-panhandle-region-grizzly-bear-shooting

GOOD for Idaho! An honorable hunter not penalized for being honorable. Like it.

It's like in Michigan, a guy trapped and killed a wolf in southern Michigan. There haven't been wolves there in 150 years. Still waiting to see what comes of the whole thing.

They took the ferry over from WI.

That's awkward.

Now...is that IDFG rep incompetent, or a hero?

Fish and Game is reviewing its staff’s part in the incident as a personnel matter.

That's great news for the hunter. I bet that was stressful as heck.

So if i get a picture of a griz, ask IDFG if it's a black bear, and they say yes. I can kill a griz? I mean. If this is their new way to actually manage them. I won't say no.

I've ran into a grizzly a time or two on the south part of 4. That was years ago though

Maybe if IDFG didn't pretend the Grizzlies are only in the upper few units, and admit there's quite a few of them folks would be a little more cautious.

Anyone know a fish and game officer who’s really bad at bear identification? I got a couple pictures to show him… asking for a friend.

You mean like this? IDFG has had this warning in the regulation book for years.
