This proposal is very…

This proposal is very disturbing. We need to protect bear cubs and mother bears, not finds ways to eliminate that. Hunting bears will not improve human safety. Stopping human-bear conflict is achieved by removing access to garbage, and other items.
You disclosed a need to reduce black bear hunting in Saugeen-Bruce Peninsula but you are also proposing to allow the hunting and trapping of these bears in that region for one week each spring. This is irresponsible on the behalf of the government. You have claimed the economic impact would be neutral or positive, but provided no evidence to support this claim. Thank you, Katy Fendrich-Turner
