On Sunday, a day before the magazine went to press, Kennedy posted a video to X, formerly Twitter, in which he confessed — to an often stunned-looking Roseanne Barr, of all people — that he was responsible for the decade-old mystery, chalking it up to little more than a harmless prank. “Let’s say you’re a hunter and you have a bear tag as part of your hunting license, you still can’t pick up a bear on the side of the road,” Batcheller said. “You just can’t.”
Batcheller noted that roadkill animals are also often of interest to conservation officials for biological data and scientific research. “I didn’t want to leave the bear in the car, because that would have been bad,” he said in the video. “So then I thought, at that time — this was a little bit of the redneck in me — there had been a series of bicycle accidents in New York. They had just put in the bike lanes. A couple of people had gotten killed, and it was every day, and people had been badly injured.”
