   In my country the bear population is in danger because of hunting which is
   out of public control.Recently 120 were killed so huge damage occured.
   Unfair media together with hunting lobbies spread false information about
   “overpopulation” of bears.In some areas the bears simply disappeared. This
   is what we got with entering into European Union.
   Thanks for posting.

   I appreciate the fact that research conduct by UK enthusiasts on our Slovak
   bears could help one day with the reintroduction of bears to the UK
   wilderness. :-)

   Excellent video. This is just the kind of research that will be invaluable
   when Brown Bears are hopefully reintroduced into the wild in the UK as well,
