Maintenance workers reported about 7:45 a.m. finding a 75-pound bear cub dumped at the roundabout near the Catamount statute at the entrance to campus, said Tom Johnson, chief of university police." To avoid just quoting the whole piece, the bear cub had been shot in the head. I really hope the crazies crawl back in their holes after November 4th, but I doubt it.

It's waaaaaay back in the NC mountains, with the nearest civilization being Asheville, 50 miles away. Finding things to do can sometimes be a challenge. The locals don't have much truck with the campus, so I'm gonna go out on a (very sturdy) limb and say this was a fraternity prank.
