I'm in favour of the proposal to keep the spring bear hunt. I work in the tourism industry and met many people over the years that have traveled to the area for hunting and fishing. Its important to keep populations under control because when the population of animals increases its hard on the rest of the ecosystem and other animals as well. Humans more frequently end up having to deal with nuisance bears when the populations are higher, food becomes more scarce they will start to come into populated areas around homes and business and create damage, panic and fear. Most people will rarely encounter a bear in their daily lives when they are properly controlled. In order to keep those numbers down its is necessary to allow hunting at different times of year.
