 It's July and it's getting hot, just like the deals at Appalachian Wireless. All month get the Samsung Galaxy S8 for just a penny with a two-year agreement. But don't wait because the deal ends soon. Better service, bigger savings. That's today's Appalachian Wireless. A video showing a man teasing a black bear that was recently released to local media has resulted in an unfortunate chain of events, both for the man who filmed it and the bear he filmed. For weeks, officers and biologists with the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife have been battling the problem of people feeding black bears in Harlan County. And a recent video released to local media outlets got the attention of those officers who then discovered the video was actually shot on the Virginia side of Black Mountain. You know, he pretty well admitted to us. He was just pranking around with the black bear and that's exactly what happened. He was pretending like he was feeding it. Once it occurred on the Kentucky side, he would have been charged with arresting a wildlife, particularly a black bear. Sergeant Pigman says while officers were talking with Jonathan Shelton, who lives in Kentucky about his video, they discovered the skull of a black bear. Shelton was charged with the illegal take of wildlife. But unfortunately, this story doesn't end there. Well, within a few hours of that video being shown, the biologist from the Virginia side actually went up there and located that bear and then euthanized it. And so a bear was lost simply because of people's interaction with it, trying to feed it. Had they left it alone, left it wild, that bear could still be roaming the mountains of Virginia or Kentucky. And that's why you will sometimes hear the phrase, a fed bear is a dead bear. He just naturally associates human beings with a handout. So anytime he sees whether it be a child or being an adult, he may come running towards you for a handout and thinking it's food. And that's a chance, officers say, they cannot take. And if you go up Black Mountain right now, you will see our signs. Do not feed the bears. We have got them from the bottom to the top. Our biologist has put them on trees up through there, so you've got plenty of warning. And like I said, if we catch you feeding, we are going to assist you.
