This may seem like a stupid question, but how often do people eat the meat of a bear they kill and how often do they just throw it away?
I know there are recipes for bear on the internet. But most stories I hear about bear hunting talk about the trophies and not the meat taken.
I am just curious because I hope to get into hunting when I return to America but only want to kill what I will eat. I do not plan on hunting bears. At the same time, I would like to try bear meat. I am one of those types that will eat anything one time and I have never had bear meat.
On a related note, I recently read an article about how many hunters were taking their excess meat to food drives that help the needy. I kind of was thinking about that when I ran across the bear recipes. It sounds like a great idea to me. But I don't know if many places would take bear meat.
