would you pay $41 to enter a National Park?
I am calling BS on this story. Read it and the implication is that folks would be okay with an 80% increase in entrance fees if it ensured they would see a bear Article

I agree that the parks do not get enough funding.
One particular COE park that sits right next to a hydro electric dam has the following income & expenses:
Total gate income, including camping fees, annually: $288,000
Total electric bill, alone, annually: $250,000
Doesn't leave much money for paid gate guards, maintenance, repairs, enhancements, etc.
