Comment
A large and vocal voting of the population of Ontario are vehemently opposed to opening the spring bear hunt. The effect on orphaned bear cubs has been proven time and again to be detrimental to the bear population and to humans as well since orphaned cubs either do not survive or learn to become dependent on human food sources.
Since there is little evidence that a hunter is able to distinguish between a mother bear and a bear without cubs, it is really a no win situation for the cubs.
We believe that there is no "trophy" or "sport" in killing mothers who are solely focused on feeding their babies.
