Robert F. Kennedy dumped a dead bear in New York City’s iconic Central Park in October 2014 .
Kennedy told Roseanne Barr that he dumped the carcass to make it look like the animal had been struck and killed by a cyclist.
A retired New York state wildlife biologist described Kennedy 's actions as perplexing, unlawful and disrespectful of a wild animal.
Kennedy had an opportunity to shine light on the many benefits of salvaging roadkill wildlife, which include utilizing meat that would otherwise go to waste and protecting scavengers, including foxes and vultures, that could also be hit when trying to feast on a roadside carcass.
He stashed the animal in his trunk for an entire day , before ultimately deciding to stage the carcass to look like the cub had been hit by a bike in Central Park .
The New Yorker profile included a graphic picture of Kennedy with the dead bear.
It shows Kennedy sitting in the back of a van, with blood stains on his pants, his fingers shoved into the bear’s bloody mouth.
Kennedy told the New Yorker : “Maybe that's where I got my brain worm,” he said.
