“Despicable.” That's the word Great Smoky Mountains National Park Superintendent Cassius Cash used to describe the discovery of a fresh bear pelt and head and a handwritten sign nearby.


At the same time, Cash, the park's first Black superintendent, acknowledged the sign was so vague that no one knows what it actually means - the message could be racist or a remark on the park's management of bears.
