They'll remove them if they're repeat offenders.


I did a long trek at Philmont with my son over 10 years ago. Philmont has a 3-strikes policy.

1. A bear gets into a camping area around people? He gets tranqued, ear tagged and brought to the edge of the property.

2. A bear with an ear tag is found in a camping area around people? Tranqued, ear tagged and removed from the property (probably to Ted Turner's place).

3. A bear with 2 ear tags is found in a camping area around people? He becomes a rug.

They kind of play it by ear here. Troopers know which bears are problem bears and those are the bears that no matter how far you remove them, they'll be back.

The only bears killed this year in town so far have been ones who charged.
