VERNON, N.J. (AP) – State officials have ticketed two bear hunt opponents
with freeing a young bear from a trap in New Jersey.
The BEAR Group released a short video on its Facebook page on which it says
a cub can be heard crying out for its mother.
The group’s lawyer, Doris Lin, tells The Star-Ledger of Newark the pair were
documenting what was happening, as was a third person who was not charged.
Lin would not comment on whether they were involved in the rescue.
The state placed two culvert traps at a condominium complex in Vernon after
two residents reported being charged at by a bear two weeks ago. The state
says the freed bear was younger and is not believed to have been involved in
that incident.

This is incredible. People who free baby animals are in trouble. The world is going to hell.
They should get a medal, not a fine.
Agreed.
Kudos to these 2 opponents of bear hunting.
