Not really sure why the TWRA wants bear populations to expand?
I am not to worried about Black Bears, granted I am not to aware of their biological impact either (I am sure they do decimate the game population to an extent and cause some human related issues). But those darn "humpies" out West are crazy over populated. The grizzly population in Yellowstone and Glacier National Parks are out of control, plus they eat us too!
Actually I had someone tell me that the black bear population in GSMNP is close to 1 bear per square mile, even if it is 1/2 that it is waaaayyyyy to high. We need to hunt those things within the park, a bear sanctuary is useless if not manged correctly, so is any mis-managed wildlife sanctuary for that matter
