I bet he plays a mean guitar too!
Country singer admits killing caged bear, calling it wild (Associated Press)
Troy Lee Gentry pleaded guilty Monday to a misdemeanor charge of falsely registering a captive bear as being killed in the wild.Under the plea, the 39-year-old country singer agreed to pay a $15,000 fine, give up hunting, fishing and trapping in Minnesota for five years, and forfeit both the bear's hide and the bow he used to shoot the animal in 2004. The bear, named "Cubby," was killed in a 3-acre private enclosure.
The guy seems to be as stupid as he looks. No small feat!

Killing for sport is bad enough, but when you can't even be sportsmanlike about it, I mourn for Mother Nature.
