Funny coincidence that at the same time as there are United Buddy Bears – The Art of Tolerance on the Senate square in Helsinki. The hunters and police had to shoot a bear in Pernaja, Finland (close to were our country side house is) since the bear got too close to the village. They tried to scare it away back to the forest but a bear that has gotten a taste for left-overs in trash cans is not likely to return to hunting grounds on it's on will.
