Default Grizz!

Maybe they should do a pilot project and introduce a few in downtown T.O.

I guess if we have that many grizzies in the wild that we can take some for repopulating the prairies that we should be able to hunt them as well.

I can't wait for the non-resident Canadian prairie grizzly hunt just outside Regina...

actually there are some now working on extracting DNA from mammoth melting out of the permafrost in Siberia. There's even talk of putting it into the eggs of elephant cows. Not so sure that's realistic.

I'd personally say let's go for the sabre tooth tiger. I might hav eto buy a bigger calibre than I currently own.
