I find this permanent spring bear hunt objectionable.
I see no benefit from it. It makes me wonder if it's a bid for less administration and more for tax revenue from tourists. It would create many motherless cubs unnecessarily.
And it doesn't seem, from a conservancy viewpoint, to have any merit whatsoever. It would likely give rise to some other species with negative results. We can't just willy nilly change nature's balance and not pay a price elsewhere.
The thought luring Hunters with guns to Ontario is also repugnant. How are you going to monitor these visiting hunters? The same way we monitor over fishing from visitors? And for what, revenue? Where does it stop? Please, let's not rush to open Ontario for business quite so much. Let's maintain our balance for future generations and be good stewards of this land - it's yours and mine to protect, not theirs to pillage.
