Comment
After reading the proposed changes and reviewing the proposals in the moose management review. I have one grave concern that the use of ATV's was not restricted to the retrieval of game. I have personally witnessed hunters running calf moose on forestry roads and thereby increasing their success rates. I have also witnessed hunters who do nothing but drive on forestry roads and shoot moose who happen to cross in front of them. This seems contrary to how hunting is taught during the licencing program for new hunters. It also favours these road hunters who put on far more miles than a person who stalks or ambushes a moose. I suggest that the BGMAC submit a supplement to their review that includes a restriction on the use of ATV.
