Comment
I am opposed to the proposal for the following reasons:
1. It does not adequately reduce moose calf hunting. Moose populations have declined due to increased human hunter success over the past few decades due to increased length of hunting season, road access, use of ATVs, party hunting, and calf harvesting. Moose calf harvesting should be further reduced to protect this resource for future generations.
2. The hunting season should not be extended because it will afford more opportunities to decrease the moose population.
3. The proposal does not have adequate scientific evidence to suggest that the changes will improve the sustainability of the moose population.
