When bear hunting season opens October 26, the state Department of Natural Resources plans to keep hunters informed by using Twitter.

The DNR has put a limitation on this year’s hunt of 60 to 85 black bears; once that mark is reached, the hunt’s called off.

Bear Project Leader Harry Spiker told the Associated Press that tweeting is just another way of keeping hunters informed.

There’s a title if I ever heard one – “Bear Project Leader.” Now that’s something to tweet about.
