Bow-and-Arrow Bear Hunting Is Blocked
The Fund for Animals, headed by author Cleveland Amory, scored a major victory Thursday when Sacramento Superior Court blocked California’s plan for a bow-and-arrow hunting season for bears. That season had been scheduled to open Aug. 18.
The organization also will try to halt the bear season for gun hunters.
Amory said the Fund for Animals further plans to ask the court to disallow this year’s waterfowl hunting season and will try to block all hunting and trapping of fur-bearing animals.
