It's about time humanity woke up and stopped killing all the creatures we SHARE this planet with. Did you know bear cubs will continue to be orphaned if the hunt becomes permanent. While it’s currently against the law to kill cubs and mother bears accompanied by cubs, mother bears often leave their cubs in trees when searching for food. If a mother is killed, her cubs will likely die slowly of starvation or be eaten by predators. If this is a safety issue, we need to remove garbage, barbeques and other bear attractants. It's time to address human stupidity and not blame the bears solely for conflicts. Bears also have low reproduction rates, therefore the survival of adult females is vital and necessary for the continuation of the species. I speculate the government is getting pressured by people who get a thrill in killing animals. I ask the government to institute critical thinking in this matter and not pander to killers. I understand the government has disclosed a need to reduce black bear hunting in Saugeen-Bruce Peninsula due to population concerns, yet it is simultaneously proposing to allow the hunting and trapping of these bears in that region for one week each spring - really?!?!?!? And of course, there is the so called economic benefit however the government has not been able to provide any evidence. Seems there is some back room dealings and pressures. Time to stand up for what is right and realize we share this planet. Time to educate people so bears do not become the so called nuisance. And there is so much violence on this planet. Do your part and stop a small part of it.
