Do you get your bears tested for trichinosis before you start eating them?

It’s no differently than store pork of
It that long ago, or chicken now. Assume the chicken has salmonella, assume the bear has trichina and cook well.

Last I saw they had backed off the 165 for commercial pork as trichina has pretty much been eliminated in the herds, but basically treat it like pork, fully cook it, will be fine.
