Polar Bears

[Andrew12gauge]

So if Polar Bears are illegal to import into the US, but Greenland becomes a US territory, could somebody go hunt polar bears in Greenland and bring them home?

MMPA applies.

The same law that governs importing also governs hunting within US. There’s already polar bears in the US that can’t be hunted by non-indigenous. Same with walrus, seals, whales, sea otters, etc.

220 swift.

Oh god the big caliber people are going to lose their minds.
Also the hand cannons for bears people.

But 224 cal can't kill big animals. The polar bear is clearly pretending to be dead to boost the ego of the hunter.

I'm totally pro small caliber, but to play devil's advocate, that looks like a pretty darn small bear unless that's a HUGE kid

Like said above, the MMPA applies. It would mean the hunting of Polar Bears in Greenland would likely cease.

Pretty good blood slick waggle behind the kid and carcass......doubt they needed to drag and reposition the bear for photos for fear of spoiling their Spot.

Probably not a DRT....

You sir, are doing fatherhood right. That is just ten kinds of awesome.

You could double the size of that bear, and a broadside shot from .220 Swift is still going to jelly its vitals.

Not me, I should have made it clearer that these were screenshots from the aforementioned "inuit hunters of the day" FB page. Agreed on how awesome it is

Wait, what? Al Gore told me that all the polar bears died because I didn't pay more taxes & turn in my guns
