I wish to go on record that I oppose a moose calf hunt and that it should end immediately.
Organizations promoting this horrific endeavor are made up of hunters and outfitters and do not represent the vast majority of Ontarians. As animals struggle in an increasingly hostile environment, it is hard enough for them to survive without the added threat of hunting and hunting babies at that. Why???? They need more protection and areas where they are free to roam without fear of humans on ATVs, with GPS, long range scopes, etc. etc. etc. They don't stand a chance against modern hunting techniques and equipment.
Also needed is more funding so that enforcement is actually enforcing !!!!!! Additionally research based science should be followed to better manage our wild lands, avoid human/wildlife conflicts, and especially target areas that need to be protected from commercial enterprises.
Thank you for listening and I sincerely hope that the MNRF will heed the voice of Ontarians and end this moose calf tragedy. They cannot speak so we MUST.
