In Oregon, where both Hunter33 and I (and it looks like a lot of other posters) live, it is perfectly legal.
Why? I have no earthly idea. My guess is it is a hold-over from the good old days when we could bait bears and run both cats and bears with dogs.
Since we can't do that anymore, something like 90% (or more) of both bears and cougars taken are taken while someone is deer/elk hunting.
