You can. Takes a pro butcher and a kill at the right time of the year.
tastes like venison tbh
Bear meat can be very good. It depends on some factors, mostly what the bears eat. You get a bear that has been eating nothing but berries and it’s arguably the best meat you ever have.
Interesting that those travel advisories fail to mention the most likely scenarios (by gargantuan margins) in which one might find themselves a victim of violence.
The idea that America is relatively dangerous is justifiable. IDK how many tourists stay away because of their silly warning, though. Prob about as many as American tourists who stay away from France because socialism might rub off on them?

La Fiscalía General del Estado de Baja California confirmó el ataque, sin que hasta el momento haya detenidos de los hechos que movilizaron a autoridades de los tres órdenes de gobierno, la Secretaría de la Defensa Nacional (Sedena), Secretaría de Marina (Semar) y Fuerza Estatal.

Many of us have passed over that very spot.
I wonder if the gunmen knew that guns are illegal in Mexico?Atacan a corredores y asistentes de carrera de autos y matan a 10 personas en Ensenada (Video)

Again mixing ”gun deaths” all together when over half of them are suicides, some accidents and most of the rest gang related shootings in very specific neighborhoods.
A comparison of murder rates (regardless of tool used in the murder) would be a useful measure of how dangerous a country is.
This graph is so misleading it’s basically just huge lie in graphic form and is worse than useless.
We actually agree. If I remember correctly, about half — little less — of gun deaths in the country are homicide.
Also, I wonder what the comparison would like next to a known violent place.

1. Why are we only looking at one specific cause of death?
2. Why are we making the leap from that one specific cause of death to insinuate that the US is more dangerous/violent because of guns when over half of ”gun deaths” are suicides, therefore are not even an act of violence against another person?
Another slightly less half of “gun deaths” are homicides. How many of those homicides are acts of self defense, police shootings, accidents, etc. They don’t say. “Homicide“ is one person causing the death of another person. Why use “homicide“ and not “murder”?
What the data says about gun deaths in the U.S.
More Americans died of gun-related injuries in 2021 than in any other year on record, according to the latest available statistics from the CDC.

3. Why do we ignore rates of actual violence perpetrated compared to other countries?
4. Why do we ignore the fact that a very tiny segment of the US population in very specific relatively small (neighborhood level) areas account for the majority of violent crimes and imply that everywhere you go in the US you might get killed?
The answer (to me) is obvious. The people who present these stats about “gun deaths” are being misleading, disingenuous and spreading disinformation/propaganda.
Countries with the Highest Rates of Violent Gun Death (Homicides) per 100k residents in 2019
- El Salvador — 36.78
- Venezuela — 33.27
- Guatemala — 29.06
- Colombia — 26.36
- Brazil — 21.93
- Bahamas — 21.52
- Honduras — 20.15
- U.S. Virgin Islands — 19.40
- Puerto Rico — 18.14
- Mexico — 16.41
I agree that total gun deaths isn’t a good way to evaluate safety of a country.
but the US stats for gun homicide are nothing to brag about or defend either. Yemen and Palestine are doing better than us. And first world countries are generally half of what we are.
