    Nice job done by The Bear League in cooperation with NDOW, Nevada Division of Wildlife! Contrary to a vocal minority of Bear League detractors The Bear League has, does, and will continue to do good work in helping The Tahoe Basin become a place where humans and wildlife live in coexistence.

    I thought the NDOW were mad bear killers. Was the evil Carl Lacky involved? Also why does the BL name WILD animals??

    Funny Sunriser2 that NDOW sees the useful benefits and assistance the Bear League may afford them even though the Bear League has been openly critical of CERTAIN NDOW actions, yet you as an armchair quarterback refuse to see the benefits of an organization that has thousands of hours collectively of bear behavior experience.

    Go figure.
