Is this to control the population for ecological reasons? It's not like bears have any natural predators and I'd imagine humans have filled that role for most of history. If this is not the case, then it's pretty sad.

You do know that (alpha) predator populations are self-regulating?
More predators => less prey => fewer predators => more prey => more predators

Money. Hunting permits = $$$$

There can't be much money in issuing 486 licenses.

Why be awful, Sweden?

It's our hillbilly population unfortunately. Since they got access to the internet they've been getting way dumber and started voting for the nazi party. Then there's the Sami of course. They mostly roleplay as some kind of "Indigenous" population while actually just being responsible for wiping out most wildlife for the last millennia. They always throw a tantrum over not being allowed to kill off all predators so they can fill every single square meter of northern Sweden with raindeer.

That's a shame for Sweden. Unfortunately, we see similar things in many other countries, and not only regarding bears.
In the U.S., it’s children at school.
Can't wait for next Friday's Kid Hunt. Those 7-year-old girls have a real nice fit for the bbq.
...hoo boy that's a bit of a cursed thing to write.
