"FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — After just two days, Florida ended its controversial black bear hunt because a higher than expected number of bears had been killed.
Wildlife authorities said late Sunday that 295 bears taken overall, nearing the official limit.
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission posted a statement on its website saying it had closed the 2015 hunt because it was approaching an agency "objective" of 320 bears overall."
