Slovenian relatives of "Smokey the Bear" were invited to dinner for 200 in the Dolomites...as the main course.
Police stopped a 50 kg banquet of grilled, stewed and perhaps even smoked bear meat...hosted by Silvio Berlusconi's Northern League coalition partners...only after ministers and animal rights groups complained.
Some locals complain that the bears attack chickens and sheep.
The banquet was intended to "send a clear signal to citizens who have the right to reconquer their territory and freely circulate".
