Conditions Ideal For Bear Season Opens In Pennsylvania
The Pennsylvania Game Commission predicted about 600 bears could be killed this season, up from under 200 last year. Conditions were favorable with good weather and adequate snow in the big woods from the Poconos to northwestern areas, aiding hunting prospects as bears prepare for winter sleep. Hunters were urged to hunt efficiently in one trip rather than wait for others to drive bears to them.
