I don't understand how pro-hunting minds help decide about preserving bear populations.
Hunting does not help populations - it only hurts and decimates them.
In the spring, animals are with their young, or about to give birth.
How is it even possible allow hunting of any animals in the spring?
I am adamantly against hunting in any form, but find spring hunts especially abhorrent.
How do hunters know if an animal is male or female?
We cannot take the chance to kill a mother and abandon her young cubs.
People have to learn to co-exist with all animals, including bears.
I know I speak for many others who say NO to the spring bear hunt in Ontario and all of Canada.
