    I want them. I also want Flemish Giants. We should start an acclimatisation society.

    These things are huge. There'd be a lot of meat on one.

    Brown bears apparently eat rabbit. I reckon we secretly introduce* brown bears to manage the rabbit population - and have a new, exciting game species to hunt!

    *just like they snuck myxamatosis into the country

    Brown bears would quickly learn to hang around picnic grounds - and we'd no longer have a problem with hoons dumping stolen cars at night there - so a crime problem solved too!!!

    OK maybe that would be expecting too much

    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    I think the Polar Bear and the Artic Hare released would cover requirements guys?

    Guys don't forget that a lot of the bulk will be an extra thick coat of fur as it is fucking cold up there. That said I would eat the bugger.
