Bear Hunting in Georgia/North Carolina OCT 24 2019
Just finished a Hike from Dick's Gap to Franklin. Encountered lost hunting dogs which had been in the woods for a week. Emaciated, poor poor shape. Good news a female hound was returned to its owner. Good news I hope is that a male hound was escorted by a hiker to Dick's Gap, hopefully made it and is now recovering at a Humane Society shelter. Next trip you might want to bring some kibble. Those dogs need all the help you can give them. Sad part you encounter them in the middle of nowhere and it is a long walk to a place you can hand them off. Lots of hunters at the Gaps. Dogs barking in the distance.

FWIW...You can't legally hunt bears with dogs in North Georgia.
That photo shows something CLEARLY illegal

Hunting from the road should not be legal
It isn't in Georgia.

Unlawful Activities on WMAs
Hunting within 50 yards of any road opened for vehicular access. (Possession of a loaded firearm within 50 yards of a road opened for vehicular access is considered hunting.)
Sadly, hunters have long developed a culture of "no snitching" when it comes to illegal activities. Don't count on any other hunter to report these criminals to local authorities.
