Hello Johan

The photo was taken in 1934 , most of the hunters are from Belgium , ( workers at a Solvay Factory in Cantabria ) , I'll investigate when was the last time a bear was shoot legally , now absolutely forbidden .

Last Bear hunted legaly in Spain was in the sixties (I guess it was in '68) and it was a female bear hunted for a Guy from Barcelona. [Wink]

I readed the story some time ago, and there was a picture of the legal permit. The hunter's son was the writer and he still owns the bear at home.

Buena caza. [Smile]
