I have read the prolapsed changes to the moose conservation attempt. I spend a good deal of my time in the forest hiking, and paddling.
I am glad to hear the Government are taking some steps to help with the dwindling moose population but I am worried it is too little to make a sufficient impact and I would not want to see attempts taken too late.
1. End the calf hunt altogether.
2. Protect the natural lands. Roads and buildings encroaching upon moose habitat must be protected. We keep building until we have nothing left for wildlife including moose leftto go.
3. I worry about the impact hunters and their interests/influence have on decisions. Hunting licenses and tags create revenue which seems counterproductive to conservation when the population is threatened. I have absolutely nothing against hunting even considered getting a hunting license myself but we need balanced and scientific decisions. When money comes into the equation sadly the best outcomes are not always met. Have you consulted withthe Indigenous people? Scientists?
I hope the action to save the moose are aggressive enough to actually reverse the declining population and bring them back to past populations.
