Almost 3 years ago I was at Baku and I could have chance to see some other cities. When I was there I saw bears at some restaurants and thought that 谋t s just for fun and creating a interest. But I heard that some restourants serve bear meat?!? is that really true? anybody have an idea or experiences? For my part I never eat it but I would really surprised if it s true.
By the way how silent Azerbaijan forum is! People must be working so hard or really enjoy with their life

Unfortunately yes it's true, in many cultures bear meat is popular. This and the fact that many parts of the animal are believed by some cultures (mostly Asian) to have medicinal or spiritual properties this continues to fuel the illegal world trade of animals and animal parts.
