Asiatic black bear?
Anyone booking hunts for Asiatic black bears?

And where are they hunted?

Are sloth bears and sun bears hunted anywhere legally?

I think you can hunt asiatic black(Ursus thibetanus) bears in ussuri taiga. That's also the place where you can find the biggest pigs.
You can ask profyhunter he is an expert for hunting in russia, i am sure he can organise it if it's possible.

I don't think you can hunt sloth bears today. Where did you hunt them?

I saved some sun bears in Vietnam about 8 years ago. I was offered them as soup, and ended up buying them for $50, and giving them to the embassy in Hanoi.

Not sure what happened to them. They loved peanut brittle though.

Mean little bastards!

I did a couple google searches and came up with a few outfits offering asiatic black bear hunts in Russia.

Not sure they are USA importable, but they are for sure huntable.
