BREAKING: Scandinavian study finds bears responding to Swedish law banning hunting of family groups by keeping cubs close for an extra year
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2018/ ... g-together

Female brown bears have learned to protect themselves from being shot by spending more time caring for their young as they adapt to legislation banning the hunting of mothers with cubs.

In Sweden, Scandinavian brown bears – Ursus arctos – are heavily hunted and anyone can hunt without having a specific licence, but bears in family groups are protected by law.

“A single female in Sweden is four times more likely to be shot as one with a cub,” said Swenson, one of the authors of the study who has spent more than 30 years working with one of the world’s longest-running research projects on bears.

Over the scope of the study, the researchers found that some female bears began to adapt their mothering tactics in order to increase their survival chances – the ursine equivalent of a human shield.

In that time, some mother bears extended the period of care from 18 months to 2.5 years.

Woh.. that's evolution in action. Females with the genetic trait to want to hang on to their cubs longer get a distinct reproductive advantage.

Now consider welfare for single mothers.

Just one clarification. In order to hunt anything in Sweden you need a weapons license and a hunting exam. Not unusual in any way. Hundreds of thousands of people do. You also need to have the hunting right for the land you’re hunting on or a permit from whoever has.

Sooo... They want to get rid of space for one type of animal to import another kind?

Bears don't rape human women, I'd keep the bears.

And/or stupid ones that do stuff like trying to take a "selfie" with the bear.
