[QUOTE="Weegee, post: 5106412, member: 20861"] I don't have numbers for you, but my understanding is that the vast majority of bears that are killed here in the southeast are killed over bait, with dogs, or incidentally while hunting deer. You can't bait in Tennessee, and I would wager that way more bears are killed using dogs than taken incidentally. If it's something you're interested in, check out a guy named Clay Newcomb. He runs Bear Hunting Magazine out of Arkansas. I don't know if it was him or someone he's interviewed, but they refer to hunting black bears in eastern deciduous forests without bait or dogs as the "sheep hunt of the south." I hope to take a bear in east Tennessee one day, but I don't think I'll be able to get out there this year. [/QUOTE]
