varmints, yes; new-to-science hybrids, no

Yet another brave hunter has bagged something interesting , an apparent grizzly-polar bear hybrid. So, that's another mystery of nature solved, albeit in a depressinlgy typical, or maybe that's typically depressing, fashion.

Why anybody wants to shoot bears is beyond me. Why not elk? They're big, dangerous and edible, and seeing as how there's not enough wolves yet to do the job, you'd be doing the world a favor.

But bears? Give me a break.

Well, I suppose I am comfortable with the shooting if its a hybrid Elk/Bear because otherwise NO ONE is going to believe you! Especially if you mention the colorful hexagon visitation incident...
