The black bear population in Ontario is substantial, sustained, harvestable, problematic and ubiquitous. They are a hazard to motorists, a nuisance at waste management facilities, a significant moose calf predator and can become dangerously aggressive when they loose their fear of man. They are an intelligent species that learns to fear man when hunted. Hunting should always be one of the management options for this species. There is no lack of habitat for this species in Ontario. Prohibition of hunting cubs and sows with cubs should always remain an essential requirement of the hunt. I support the re-instatement of the spring bear hunt in Ontario.
