I am very concerned that the Ont. gov. is proposing to make the temporary spring black bear hunt permanent. It is my understanding that there are only approximately 100,000 black bears in Ont. That is a not a large number of animals! Years ago, the spring black bear hunt was banned because hunters are unable to distinguish between male and nursing female bears. Females will often hide their cubs when they perceive danger. As a result, hunters have inadvertently shot and killed many mother black bears, rendering the very young orphaned cubs helpless without their moms. This is extremely cruel and is not necessary. And that is why the spring hunt was originally banned. Any kind of justification of a permanent spring hunt based on so- called "economic" reasons is not a valid justification for this cruel practice. As a result, I am appealing to the provincial gov. to ban the spring bear hunt altogether.
