Your post makes me so mad! We had a similar incident here. Bear came to town, so many folks pestered it that it finally went up a tree. Conservation came and with aid from local law enforcement finally got the PEOPLE under control. The bear was scared down from the tree with some kind of firecracker round shot from what looked like an H&R single shot shotgun. Law enforcement "herded" the bear back to the woods and the bear, in this instance, was ok. But as so often is the case, people are usually the problem, not the wildlife. And as 'Lilred says, there's only so much dirt, the more we pave, the less left for critters.
