The verdict relates to footage in August showing a man trap a bear under his vehicle before kicking it, and threatening to knife and commit a sexual act on the beast. 

The bears paws were trapped under the wheels on his off-road vehicle. But the bear broke free and attacked the vehicle, clawing at a tyre.

Why not take this guy out doors, run him under a vehicle 6 or 7 times and see how he likes it. Maybe he would. He is sadistic enough.

Pitiful sentence for a pityful sadist; I'd have given him life alone in a cage with the same "Bear".
