It was delicious.

Could be because carnivores aren't easy to raise as livestock, or maybe it's professional courtesy. It's hard to herd wolves or lions, much easier with cattle or sheep.
Imagine trying to round up wolverines.

I didn't know people ate bears.
You guys are so weird. You speak some French, eat bears, what else ?

The generally accepted hypothesis among breeders is that the Maine Coon is descended from the pairings of local short-haired domestic cats and long-haired breeds brought overseas by English seafarers (possibly by Captain Charles Coon) or 11th-century Norsemen.[10][11] The connection to the Norsemen is seen in the strong resemblance of the Maine Coon to the Norwegian Forest Cat, another breed that is said to be a descendant of cats that traveled with the Norsemen.[12][13]

About black bears, there's no question that they're dangerous to people. The average black bear can probably lift more weight than Mr. Universe, while also being able to crumple up an attacking Bruce Lee and toss him onto the fire like a newspaper.The_Metatron wrote:aban57 wrote:The_Piper wrote:I'm going to guess because they're usually too lean.

Black bear.
The meat is really stringy, and tastes sort of... bad. I’ve hunted for them, but never saw one.
Dangerous to humans, black bears. They aren’t afraid of us or our houses, which results in many encounters. A black bear isn’t as physically dangerous as a polar bear, for example, but they’re god damned big and pointy enough that from our soft pink defenseless perspective, they may as well be as dangerous.
