I am concerned that black bears could be over-harvested as black bears have a low reproductive rate. With this spring hunt many young and/or orphaned cubs will be killed. These young and orphaned bears being killed will have an impact on the population.

I am also concerned that hunters will kill bears that are prohibited such as females or ones with cubs. I think COSSARO needs to reassess bears in Ontario. Please don't expand the spring bear hunt!
