I was born in Romania 32 years ago. I can't imagine my life too much time far from my country. You will see in the photos why.

Romania has all 4 seasons, all kind of landforms, sea, rivers, old churches, medieval towns, Delta, rare birds, wildlife, spectacular sunrises and sunsets, traditions preserved hundreds of years.

It's a tradition, like the Torreo in Spain, but the bad thing in Romanja is that there are more bears killed illegally by rich poachers than by legal hunters.

I'm gonna (hope) guess these are old skins in line w tradition that have been around for generations and the rest of these bears were not wasted.

That is the Balkans Halloween, a very old tradition from father to son, people dressed as beasts and dance,making big noise to banishing the evil power and the year to be healthy and fertile - this is from Bulgaria : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4zlpipwBB6o

I'll stick with a tanooki suit if I want to see something small wearing a animal's head.

I understand traditions are precious and easily lost through the generations...but with all of the technology and skills we have to create synthetic fibre and cloth that can keep you warm down to -40C, why kill an animal?

It still seems very grim to me to be dressing your child in dead animal carcasses with the head still attached, using its arms as sleeves. I understand its tradition, that means its old. Maybe it's a little out dated now? I wonder how it could be updated.

It` a not outdated. The tradition refers to Christmas period, and the role of costumes plays a big deal. The costumes, music, songs and dance form a performance, something that it`s so deep rooted in our culture. :) but not only children are implicated in it, also adults and old people still perform these rituals sort of it.
