Bear Hunters Harvest Stands at Fifth Highest So Far

Pennsylvania Game Commission preliminary bear harvest figures show that 2,946 bears were taken during the recently completed three-day season (Nov. 24-26), and an additional 68 bears were harvested during the two-day archery bear harvest (Nov. 19-20).

That’s a lot of bears. The largest was a male that weighed in at 716 pounds.
