I feel like opening up the spring bear hunt will be the most detrimental all of the threats facing the black bear. The bears are already facing habitat loss, changing climate, food scarcity and so much more. Moreover, hunters often can't tell the difference between a female and male bear (assuming their are no anti-science gender ideology nuts within the ministry) and often shoot female bears, creating orphans of their cubs. There is no concrete peer-reviewed data to suggest reinstating the spring hunt will be beneficial to anyone other than the hunters, or businesses that profit off the killing of wildlife.
Please do not reinstate the spring bear hunt.
