kickingfrog Posted April 21, 2014 Report Share Posted April 21, 2014 http://barrie.ctvnews.ca CTV Barrie Published Monday, April 21, 2014 1:39PM EDT A bear carcass has been found in Barrie near Anne Street and Vespra Street, just feet off the road. Police were called to the scene this morning, and say it looks like the bear wasn’t tagged, and may have been poached illegally. The bear appears to have been in a freezer; there was freezer burn on its nose and paws. Barrie police now have the bear in their possession and expect the Ministry of Natural Resources to look at the bear to help decide whether they need to investigate further. As of now, the person who dumped the bear could only be facing a maximum fine of $5,000 for illegal dumping. A pilot project is allowing a spring black bear hunting season starting May 1 in Northern Ontario. The traditional black bear hunting season opens in August.

Only thing around here might be a couple of errant bear pharts. The way some the Timmies Trolls look, they'd probably scare the poor bugger to death.

irishfield Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 From what I saw on the news it was just a complete hide that had been gutted totally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinker Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 Ok, so was it just a hide....as in just the fur? Was it a gutted carcass? Was it even shot? Are there any actual logical facts? Did anyone ever think it might have got hit by a car(maybe even a snow plow) and spent the winter in the snowbank?? Is this the first bear in barrie or something?? S.

kickingfrog Posted April 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 (edited) It was partly in a plastic bag. From what I saw on the tv news the head and front paws were there ( I assume the rear paws were there but I didn't see them). It was a smallish looking bear. The hide had been cut with a sharp object. Edited April 22, 2014 by kickingfrog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
