I think the breeder was in the right to shoot his bear... It had attacked someone & it was a good decission on his part as he was able to stop anyone else from getting hurt right away.

If I had a dog & it got loose & attacked someone & was a threat, I would have done the same to prevent anyone else from getting hurt or killed.

Its a sad end, I agree, but its not a waste.. if hes smart, the bear will be used & sold, as you can eat bears.
