Kennedy, 70, shared a three-minute video on X in which he narrated the encounter to actress and comedian Roseanne Barr.
He also stated that The New Yorker magazine learned about the incident, the date of which is unknown, and requested confirmation.
Kennedy described heading north from New York City to go falcon hunting when he noticed a woman in a van hit and kill a juvenile bear.
So I drove over, scooped up the bear, and put it in the back of my van because I was going to skin it, and it was in excellent shape, according to the politician.
Kennedy claimed he was running late, so he went back to New York City for dinner, with the dead bear in his car.
When the dinner ran late, he explained he didn’t have time to stop at his Westchester County home before heading to the airport.
He and his buddies devised a plan in response to a spate of bicycle accidents that occurred in the city around the same period.
I wasn’t drinking, of course, but people were drinking with me and thinking.
