i was checking out cheap flights. Do you need a hand hauling him out off the woods.
Some great recipies here for bear meat, though I cant find one with honey.

I will have to try some of these recipes, though the Trichonosis warning is a little disheartening to put right at the top of the page.
You are welcome to come, but we will let the tractor do the hauling while we drink a few beers. Then we will cook him every way we can find.
We have cattle, three nice Jersey cross heifers and a Jersey bull, as well as four draft horses, all fenced with three strands of electric out to the woodline. So really these hives are fenced twice cause the bear would have to come through the cattle fence and across the field before he could reach the hive fence. I don't know if the cows and horses are an added deterrent or not.
