Articles NJ Governor John Corzine stops annual bear hunt CAN'T BEAR THIS HUNT The New York Post Gov. Jon Corzine said yesterday that he remained unconvinced that a bear
hunt helps control the animals, signaling he won't approve a hunt this year
and incensing lawmakers from northwestern New Jersey. Corzine has until Monday to readopt regulations authorizing a Dec. 4-9
bear hunt in the state's northwestern region. "There's no evidence this has been a good control device," Corzine said.
"I haven't seen anything that changes my mind on this." Hunt supporters disagree, saying bears have been sighted in family yards,
on porches and beside children's swing sets. Fair Use Notice: This document may contain
