BLACK BEAR
**FILE** A black bear wanders around Juneau, Alaska, in this undated file photo. A ballot measure to outlaw bear baiting will be on the Nov. 2 election ballot. Both sides in the debate over the measure are accusing each other of allowing outside forces to come in and determine what is good for Alaska. Bear baiting, putting out food as a lure, usually something sweet or greasy, is illegal in 41 states. In Alaska, it can be used only to hunt black bears, not grizzlies. (AP Photo/David J.
