This is a shameful practice. There is no need to open the timeline to allow hunters to hunt when there is the possibility of a mother bear being killed. Does not make us appear like a responsible humane province and sends an awful message to kids.

As for hunters being able to tell if a bear is pregnant or nursing? Unlikely.

Light sources are dim or non existant for much of hunting and brush can easily obscure telltale signs.

Hunters have enough safer times to hunt!
