Please, please, please. Do not allow any bear hunting. It's cruel, barbaric, dangerous and completely unnecessary. Don't allow the killing of mothers and babies. Thank you.
Bears, like all wildlife, need our compassion and protection. It’s unacceptable that the government is supporting the cruel and needless trophy hunting of bears.
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.

I think that your proposal is nothing but a money grab, and has nothing to do with conservation, The Idiot that thought this up ,should lose his or her job. This is like reading a comic strip out of a news paper.

I live in a rural area of Ontario and enjoy the beauty of nature that surrounds me every day and that includes black bears. I am very concerned about the proposal to allow spring bear hunts again. It is inevitable that bear cubs will to be orphaned if the hunt becomes permanent.

Hunting should no longer take place in Canada or anywhere else. Bear hunts only orphan baby bears as their mothers are coming out of their dens with less energy after hibernation. They only want to protect their young!

The comment about a spring bear hunt that I most remember was from a hunter who said that he (whose sex I can only presume (sorry to everyone of whatever sex, because I honestly can't remember and could even apply a sex to name like Morgan - sorry all you Morgans out there) needed a feed of bear me

The bear hunt is ethically wrong in targeting animals when they are vulnerable. They have young and are hungry after hibernation.
It does NOT end human /bear conflict. Only human behavior change will do that. Educate and enact strict fines to people who make attractants available.

I don’t think the bear hunt should be aloud at all. This doesn’t seem well investigated and researched. Making bear hunting permanent would put bear numbers lower and they don’t have a high reproduction rate or survival rate.

The Spring Bear Hunt puts female bears at risk at bait sites and even experienced hunters would have a difficult time distinguishing from the males.

I strongly oppose the spring bear hunt. Bear populations are already at risk of decline due to loss of habitat, so-called conflicts with humans usually caused by actions of humans, poaching, and an increasing illegal bear bile trade. The hunt causes orphans who are then also at risk of survival.

I'd like to know what's wrong with you people in government? What gives you the right to allow the taking of another beings life? Oh, wait a minute...whose pockets are being lined by the gun manufacturers and the hunting lobbyists? You all make me sick! LEAVE THE ANIMALS ALONE!!
