Our view: Move ahead with bear hunt, but be sure to listen to tribe's concerns first - Grand Forks Herald | Grand Forks, East Grand Forks news, weather & sports
The DNR reports that the past year saw widespread nuisance bear problems at the Angle. Seeking food during 2021’s drought, bears flocked there in great numbers. But the Red Lake Band of Chippewa opposes the idea, saying the creation of a new hunting unit will infringe on their property rights – about 80% of the Angle is tribally owned – and also that the DNR didn’t discuss the idea with tribal leaders before moving ahead with the plan.
