Too many bears are being put down. We are taking their land.

We also need some alternative to just killing the bear for being curious. Relocation, a zoo , a refuge , something. These animals can't speak for themselves we need to do better. They were here first!!!

Please keep the bears safe and force business to secure trash and impose punishment for people that feed the bears and lead them on a path of the doom

I am very concerned with the bears in Gatlinburg. Feeding a bear equals a dead bear. Please enforce protection for the bears.

It should not be out on the animal to be put down because the stupidity of humans. Humans need to be better!! Also feel like laws on distance too. Def a huge fine if you’re caught too close.

Too many of our bears are being killed because of the stupidity of people and businesses. We are in their space. These are not animals you can walk up to to feed or pet. They are wild animals. Keep your distance and stop feeding them.

Businesses need to do more regarding trash security. More fines will give us revenue for more rangers

Stiffer fines must be placed on those who feed bears and establishments such as restaurants and hotels who do not abide by the rules. If bears are continually euthanized because of people’s stupidity, there won’t be any left to enjoy.

It is our responsibility to protect and preserve the wildlife in the smokies. Enforce laws on the humans and stop murdering the bears.
