No care for preventing the encounters, they like it as it gives them reason to kill them. Couple of months back there was a male bear who got into town, so they went to hunt it down and in the end they said the bear was shot down but it was a female… as long as there is a dead bear, they don’t care
Very happy with Linux Mint
