Comment
I am entirely opposed to the Ontario government's proposal to bring back the spring bear hunt.
This abhorrent practice was originally stopped in 1999, and with good reason, it has no reason to exist in the 21st century!
Researchers have already shown that hunting "is unlikely to prevent elevated levels of Human Bear Conflict" which directly contradicts one of the government's arguments for reintroducing the spring bear hunt. Please see attached references.
