Proposed changes to the black bear hunting regulations are a grave error in judgement. The people in charge of making these changes obviously know nothing about black bears and a spring bear hunt will leave numerous bear cubs abandoned and left to starve to death. What a horrible way to die after just being born a few months before. Some mothers are just coming out of their dens and they are slow they need food and they need to feed their cubs and you’re proposing to shoot them in the head. Whoever is in charge of this decision. The black bear hunt was stopped for a reason leave it that way, stopped. We need them, the environment needs them, the ecosystem needs them and more importantly their cubs need them. We don’t need hillbillies and foreigners going there to shoot these mother bears just for the joy of killing something because that’s all it boils down to. It is unfathomable that you’re even thinking about that just for a few dollars how about ecotourism can anyone think of anything like that? It has been proven that there is a lot more money to be made in eco tourism. Bottom line I for one do not want any hunters killing our bears. I refuse to accept this proposal. In my opinion the person responsible for putting forward this proposal should be fired. They obviously know nothing about the environment, our wildlife, and the wildlife’s needs in that environment and our need to have them there. Shamefully yours
