Florida wildlife commissioners voted unanimously (5-0) Wednesday morning to reinstate a black bear hunt and approve the final rules for the upcoming hunting season this winter.⁠ ⁠ That regulated hunt will take place over 23 days in December, and it will mark the first Florida black bear season in a decade. The long-term future of black bear hunting in Florida remains uncertain, however. An advocacy group known as Bear Warriors United filed a related lawsuit against the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission on Tuesday night, less than 24 hours before the FWC commission meeting was scheduled to take place in Havana. The group is arguing in its suit that FWC “improperly delisted the bears in 2012,” and part of their intention is to stop future bear hunts from happening.⁠ ⁠ Tap the link in profile for the full story 🔗⁠ ⁠ #florida #blackbear #blackbears #hunting #bearhunt #bearhunting #huntingbears #bear #bears #outdoors #conservation #outdoorlife⁠ 📷: Neal Herbert / NPS⁠ Story...
