I fully support bringing back the spring bear hunt as having lived all my life on the land as a professional hunting and fishing guide, trapper and subsistence hunter during which i have witnessed what the black bear does to the moose calf population. Being of first nation descent the moose is tremendously important to our people, our children, grandchildren and future generations as a major food source and the black bear kills many, many calves in the spring. It is also becoming more aggressive towards humans as documented by numerous encounters resulting in injuries and even death. The spring bear hunt also contributes a large sum of money to the economy and people’s livelihoods. I have observed a general increase in black bear populations year after year which is not good for moose and humans. Thank you.
