Doesn't look like much of a "hunt" to me.

wow just pitiful imo. I was kinda hoping that last large $hitty shot sob who had to shoot it 6 times was mauled by another bear in the area on his way over to finally put it down.
I feel the same way about food baiting any game animal in. If you do not have the skills to track a run, look for a rub or know where they naturally feed and know where to put your stand then you have no business in the woods.
This style of killing is strictly about money to the outfitter and an ego boost to the shooter and nothing to do with hunting.

None of you people have hunted or have a clue about hunting bears over bait in Canada, apparently. To me, you all sound like a bunch of birkenstock-wearing organic-arugula-munching PETA freaks.
I have no desire whatsoever to hunt in this fashion, none at all. The very idea of hunting bears has no appeal to me at all. But this is legal, and a traditionally accepted practice not only in Canada but in my home state of Michigan as well. All of you with wildlife biology degrees, please state your scientific reason for the superiority of your position. Tell us why this is an unacceptable wildlife management tool. All of you lawyers, please tell us what laws were violated and what legal remedy you propose to alleviate Yogi Bear of this immoral practice.
If any of you hunt, there are going to be people who criticize your methods, your game of choice. They want to rob you of YOUR chosen methods. "You bird hunters waste hundreds of dollars traipsing through the bird's habitat in order to satisfy your blood lust." "You whitetail hunters who hunt over bait or crops or scent or deer crack, well its obvious you are compensating for the inadequacies you suffer below your beer belly."
I think its appropriate that watching something die - anything - makes us uncomfortable. I hunt and the worst part of it for me is the kill, and I hate the sit-com hunting shows on Versus and OLN on Saturday mornings that glorify the kill shot and not much else. That gives me no right to pontificate my righteous indignation simply because I disagree with people legally practicing the methods of sound game management as dictated by the game management authorities in their hunting area.

As much as I detest baiting any game (that's a point to be made at another time), I am inclined to agree with Shorthair on this. Just because I don't like something doesn't necessarily mean I'm right or that the other person is wrong, it just means we see things differently. If I lived in a high bear area I might see things differently, but as it is I don't.
FWIW, I didn't watch more than 45 or so seconds, that was all I needed to see to form a pretty good guess about how the rest of the video would be. Everybody has their own way of going about things, there's always going to be someone out there who disagrees.

No wonder the anti's dont like us hunters
They probably think we are all rrr's holes like them. I bet they are so proud to call themselves BEAR HUNTERS :barf:
I have posted this pic to show you guys how those idiots pass their spare time.... while not out bravely hunting bears.....

My qualms with this method of "control" is that is named "HUNTING" when in actuality it is sittin' and shootin'. And the suckers gotta shell out some serious Benjamins to do it!
Call a spade a spade fer cryin' out loud. That is all I ask. Nuisance wildlife control! I don't care if they are snared and hung by a rear leg until starved to death just don't call it huntin'!
I did paid pest control of the bugs and rodent variety for years and never once had some one offer to pay me to take them "hunting". I also would never expect some one to drive 10 hours to come here just to walk up to a trap with a hog in it and call that hunting.
I have an open offer to those wanting to try hog doggin' and can at times get permission from the farmer/landowner to allow me to take a select few into their swamps for a try with firearms. Those are hunts in their purest forms and many folks will charge someone for this and many are willing to pay for it. I rather not go "pro guide" nor do I want to make it a business transaction as I rather it be just a redneck guy sharing a different style of hunt on a different critter in a different environment. I do accept tips though

We hunt pigs, deer and roos
we do it the normal way, we stalk the deer (in season) Hunt the hogs on foot or on bikes and shoot the roos when farmers ask us to. Also foxes and rabbits of course. Some farmers bait roos, foxes and rabbits, but they die a terrible long death.... Well placed bullets are much more humane.
No one I know lures them with food, and shoots them from the safety of a treehouse....
The last couple of roo shoots I have been on, was a terrible sight.... the farmer had only 25% of the steers he usually keeps, because the roos had eaten the grass (roots and all, as they do) and the roos were starving too, was awful

It's decided I guess. All of you eastern hunters who have spent thousands of dollars managing food plots, setting up feeders, salt licks and what nought are now no longer hunters and must stop immediately because you are giving the rest of us guys a bad name. This is not hunting, it is baiting and the birkenstock boys demand it. They also will no longer hunt out of blinds, etc.
Face it guys, it's just like hunting hogs w/ dogs. It does not appeal to me but there is some rich history in doing these types of hunts. I once saw a filmed hunt out of the southeast involving dogs and at the last moment a celebrity stepped up to a cornered hog and blasted him w/ a .45. It did not present itself to an anti as an honorable means to hunt. It is their right and legal to do so. Some of you need to quit dealing in absolutes,,your life will be better for it.

I am an eastern hunter and do none of that. The only food plots we have were only planted because the fields that had in years past given a lot of food to the local wildlife haven't been utilized for crops during this past year, and for the record quite a large portion of our "food plots" are really just large gardens that we've planted. Deer can tear up a turnip patch
I also don't hunt out of blinds, or big box tree stands. IF I'm in a tree stand it's just a simple climber, but most of my hunting is done on the ground, stalking through the woods. I know you were just trying to prove a point, but I had to respond for the fun of it.
Like I said in my previous post, everyone has a different way of doing things and there's always going to be someone who disagrees with it. I don't care for long range rifle hunting, but I understand that there are places where that's pretty much the only viable way of hunting a deer. I despise the local hunt clubs who run dogs because the people are a$$holes who have no respect for other hunters, private property, or even their own dogs but I know that there are dog runners who are the opposite of that. Listening to people up here like Hogdogs always reminds me that not all dog runners are jerks who aim guns at you while trespassing on private property (true story).
I think everyone has to deal with it eventually, not everyone is going to agree about how things should be done. I can't stand baiting of any kind, but that doesn't change the fact that it's perfectly legal in some places and is an accepted form of hunting.
