Comment
I have been recently made aware of the changes to regulations coming into effect soon. I find it reprehensible that the composition of BGMAC is slanted towards male hunters and does not take into account the wishes of all Ontarions.
I also question the desire to hunt calves. This is illogical and goes against studies on maintaining the health and continuity of a herd. Unless you are an ancient ruler, slaughtering the young is never a good answer.
I fail to see why it is not possible to restrict hunting to specific sections. Why cannot you establish a home-free or safe zone for moose? Furthermore, while I am writing this, why not spend less money on this legislation and hunting committees and more on monitoring, research resources and even, novel idea here - on enforcement. Hunters do get carried away. Repugnant as the idea of hunting anything except for food is to me, I believe it is permissible under certain circumstances and monitored closely. Unfortunately, this committee and the changing rules do not indicate they are going to fulfill even the basics.
