Obligatory:

Should be at least the same fine/sentence as if they poached a bear without a hunting license.

If only it would have played out that way.

I’m ok with leaving the law out of this one, and letting the mother bear sort it out.

I almost wish mom had shown up, if only the resulting bloodbath wouldn’t have resulted in the bear being shot (rather than the cub-molesters being shot just in case momma bear didn’t finish the job).

From the article, it sounds like these morons got away with nothing but a warning, which I assume they will disregard, since they have already demonstrated themselves to be complete idiots. They should have been heavily fined and spent some time in lockup. They are lucky they didn’t get mauled by a pissed off momma bear. The video would have been a lot more entertaining if it had captured that scene.
