Hunters often struggle to pinpoint the difference between a male and female black bear, and risk killing a mother bear during the spring season – orphaning her cubs who are too young to survive on their own.
Although there is a ban on killing bear cubs and their mothers, this won’t stop hunters who fail to make the distinction. Inadvertently shooting mother bears is what prompted the cancellation of a previous pilot spring hunting season, and reinstating it based on a proposed economic need just isn’t enough to warrant the negative impact on the species.
