Hello,
It is my understanding that moose are on the decline in Ontario. However, the Ontario government still allows calves to be hunted. This does not make sense -- the proposal website even states, "Calf harvest in these WMUs is currently affecting hunting opportunities for adult moose and is likely impacting recruitment and population growth, contributing to these populations being below the population objective ranges." How can moose populations return to the "objective ranges" if we keep allowing hunting of immature calves who have not yet had the opportunity to reproduce? It makes NO sense.
I am asking the Ontario government to:
* STOP the calf hunt TOTALLY
* START designating some areas as moose habitat protection areas
Thank you.
