A Spring bear hunt is just plain wrong. You are putting mothers and cubs at serious risk of death. Do you honestly believe that sitting in a blind in a tree with bait below you is only going to attract male bears? By the way, only a pathetic coward would “hunt” this way and so many do - it should be illegal, not that the legality matters to many of these people. Do you honestly believe that when a female bear with cubs (who are likely hiding while mom checks things out) will not be shot by an over eager “hunter” in whatever manner they are using to hunt leaving the cubs orphaned and probably left to die? This should not be an economic issue and yet it really is, isn’t it?! DO NOT ALLOW A SPRING BEAR HUNT ... it is cruel and inhumane to shoot a hungry bear emerging from hibernation. Do not allow any hunting in the in genetically sensitive areas. Just STOP, please. I understand that some hunting will occur but allowing the Spring Bear Hunt to continue will just result in more and more dead and orphaned cubs and that makes us pathetic. Please give funding to organizations like bear.with.us who rehab orphaned cubs. It’s the least you can do since we all know you are going to allow the Spring Bear Hunt to go ahead. Enjoy the death. BTW ... I am not giving my name b/c I would be fired from my job for this post. So trust me, I know how badly the rules are broken. At least outlaw baiting ... please. It’s a disgusting practice. Thank you.
