My husband and I are completely opposed to the reinstatement of the spring bear hunt in Ontario. This year alone, the over one billion animals have been lost in the Amazonian forest and Australian bush fires alone, and before that countless others died in the Alberta, BC, and Ontario forest fires. It should be more than enough that we still have a fall hunt without adding to it. In fact, i would prefer to eliminate that Huns too. When will we come to the realization at animals and their habitat need to be protected rather than being sold to the highest bidder to kill for fun.

Add to this that females bears are often mistaken for males and shot. In the spring, that, leaves their cubs to die of starvation. These dead cubs are not counted when we try to keep track of the numbers in our arrogant effort to “manage” how many animals we are “harvesting”.
