I'm very sorry, but if an 800 lb grizzly pops out of the woods at close range in the woods, then its a "shoot-first, ask questions later" situation. I'm not about to ask the bear how he's feeling that day.
Yeah, if the evidence indicates the bear was shot well out in the open from a ways away, making misidentifaction or danger unlikely, then throw the book at the guy.
But it seems like the authorities are doing a pretty knee-jerk reaction, particularly when there is NO margin for error with these animals.
