Just keep PB & J sandwiches in your pocket. You’ll find bears.

Or some spilled coke cans in the back of your truck

With all this talk of hunting bear, I'm curious to how they taste? Are all parts delicious?

Every bear I've tried has been delicious. I've tried four different bears that other people have harvested and shared with me. Similar to pork, fatty meat. It's much more red in color than pork though.

I've heard that occasionally you can get a nasty bear, especially if it's been feeding off of dead elk or deer for a while. If you find em in the oaks or cactus though you should be good. Make sure you cook your bear meat well, to a temperature that kills all parasites. 90% of trichinosis cases in the United States come from eating undercooked bear meat.

I know where a number of them habit, I have just never had a hankering to hunt or eat bear. I know some love it but kinda like killing a rattlesnake. What for?

Because rattlesnakes and bears both have beautiful hides and taste good 😂

I’ve only killed them in Washington, somebody on this thread once described the taste of Arizona bears as “someone close to Nancy Pelosi”

Hope that gets you excited!!! Hahaha

Bears taste like what they've been eating. If you find one in acorns or pears they're fine. If you find one that's in a trash heap or some ranchers carcass dump, not so much.
