Ksquared......
I seriously doubt there would be 10,000 hunters, especially if the New Jersey Fish and Game do it right. They should attach a fairly high price for a Tag, like maybe $500.00(?), as well as a VERY STIFF Penalty if caught bear hunting w/o a License and the Special Tag. The hunters that would go after the bears would be very experienced and very responsible people/hunters like say TH and myself. These hunters would not shoot if there was danger of a stray bullet ending up on some road or highway or through someones window. There will be plenty of press about a hunt like this, maybe even asking citizens to stay out of the woods for the one or two weekend hunt or 7-10 day hunt. Most people wouldn't find this to be any kind of hardship they couldn't live with, if it means they can start enjoying swimming, bar-b-q'ing, etc., in their backyards again. Even more so, with their little tykes.
Not knowing the area, I am not sure how they'd lay out the hunt but, if they do it like they do in most states you and your neighbors would not be in any danger. Even though you see bears in your neighborhood, the hunt would most likely start in areas less populated by humans. Once the over-population is thinned out, animals (including bears) always move back into their Natural Habitat. I know what you are thinking, "why would they want to leave your area when they can get plenty to eat out of neighbors trash cans, etc...because the only reason the bears are in your neighborhood in the first place is there are so many bears all over forcing the weakest to move on...thus many end up in neighborhoods like yours. Once they don't feel threatened by other bears (Survival of the Fittest) they start heading back into areas where they are comfortable and feel safe and have plenty of natural food to eat. Trust me, once the bear population is thinned out you will start seeing less and less and much more infrequently.
TH can probably give you more info in more detail since he is probably familiar with New Jersey, living next door in Pa. Just remember, Ksquared, hunts like this go on in most every state in America, and home owners are no more likely to catch a bullet than they would being hit by a car while out for a walk. Or worse, eaten alive by a big ol' BAR!!! <ggg> Hell, Ksquared, you never know, but a tall, tan hunter may even stop by asking if he could get a drink of water...LOL Hunters are the nicest people in the world. We Respect Animal and Plant life a million times more than these old Kalifornicate, tree hugging, save the sperm whales, naked, gay rights, jerks that live out there in Lala Land. If we left things up to those jerks out there, the human race in America would completely die off in 20-25 years. Hunters are the ones who see to it that animals and humans can live together. Hunters are the ones who plant new trees, plant plots of food for animals, make water area sanctuary's for ducks and geese. I could go on and on but, a good semi expensive bear hunt in New Jersey is the way to get the ball rolling. It may take more than just a couple years to get things completely under control, but, you have to start sometime or they'll force you down here to Tejas, home of millions of tall, dark, handsome, smooth talking, studly, cowboys, who can make love and ride a bull...not at the same time, of course! <ggg>
Colt...partly serious, partly joking around!
