Theresa Vail, of Wichita, Kansas, the star of “Limitless with Theresa Vail,” has been charged with killing a grizzly bear in May without possessing a state bear tag for the animal. Investigators say she held a single bear tag and shot a male grizzly bear, attempted to kill it with a second shot, and instead fired and killed a second bear, a sow grizzly.
“This May, during an Alaskan guided bear hunt, I unintentionally harvested a second bear while attempting a follow up shot,” Vail said in a statement. “I then followed poor advice and allowed the second bear to be improperly tagged. A few days later, the film crew and I reported the incident and have since fully cooperated with the proper authorities.
“I am deeply sorry for my mistakes.”
Vail ‘s show “Limitless with Theresa Vail” airs on the Outdoor Channel, and in an interview earlier this year, said, “I fully believe that teaching a woman how to use a gun is the best thing you can do for her and for her confidence and her personal empowerment,” Vail said. “That’s when I became completely confident in defending and protecting myself. The Second Amendment is my life.
