When my buddy and I set out into the wilderness, we expected to see bears. We didn't plan on getting charged by an angry sow 100 feet off the ground.

She appreciated how the hunt led them to explore places most people never had a reason to visit and how having to thoroughly research where they were going enriched ... a snake, a bear, a mud ...

While urban bear encounters have increased in Florida, some fear a bear hunt could leave more dead than necessary.
