Black Bears have existed in some parts of New Jersey for centuries, and it has always been their fate to meet their end in the hands of human hunters. As appalling as this situation might be for those who are committed to helping preserve these creatures, a new study suggests that hunting the bears might be the only way to save them amidst the encroaching human population.
The study was conducted by researchers at the Utah State University, Phys.org reports. It suggests that by planning the method and approach to hunting, the ancient practice largely considered barbaric can be made into a tool for preservation. At least, this is what USU researcher Jarod Raithel and his colleagues are saying.
"Our research indicates regulated harvest of this recovered black bear population represents a pragmatic tool to help control population growth and, when coupled with incident-response management and educational programming, reduced the number of nuisance bear reports because hunters are more likely to harvest those bears with a history of being a nuisance," Raithel said.
One of the biggest challenges to actually preserving the black bear population is the fact that the spread of human-controlled areas means the decline of wildlife habitats. This means that the bears often clash with local residents, thus prompting fears among people. This fear leads to an overreaction, which when coupled with greed cruelty, can lead to overzealous hunting practices.
The black bears are also prone to coming into contact with humans more often than before because of how cubs are eating food made by humans, the New Jersey Herald reports. When these cubs turn to adults, they continue the habit, which then puts them in closer proximity to excitable residents.
Then there’s the fact that bears are often seen on highways, which puts them at risk of dying via collision. By controlling their population through careful hunting regulations, the black bears can be preserved and won’t be wiped out.
