Dead bear cub found covered with Obama signs

Police at Western Carolina University say a dead bear cub was found dumped on the campus Monday morning, draped with a pair of Barack Obama campaign signs.

The Asheville Citizen-Times reported that maintenance workers reported finding the 75-pound cub dumped at a roundabout near the Catamount Statue at the entrance to campus.

The school’s police chief said it appeared the bear cub had been shot in the head, and that two Obama signs had been stapled together and stuck over the animal’s head.
