It's 2020 , time to go forward and stop being stupid . It's time to stop going in animals land and building in THEIR environment . There are not too many animals , there are way too many humans .
I am writing to express my concern regarding the decision to allow bear hunting in the spring season. I support the protection of bears and strongly oppose black bear hunting.
I do not agree with implementing black bear hunts, temporary or permanent, under any circumstances.
These are sentient beings with families and they deserve a right to life and to not become pointless trophies, collecting dust. They deserve to keep their lives and live in peace!

Females with cubs must be protected; currently that is difficult as cubs are frequently treed or kept away by their mother while she forages.
The current season of May 1 to June 15 should be changed to June 1 to June 30 to protect females with cubs as well as the cubs themselves.

There are a great deal of issues surrounding the existing spring bear hunt that have not been addressed appropriately. While The Fur-Bearers strongly oppose the spring bear hunt and believe it should be cancelled, there are issues that must be considered if it is to continue.

I am not in favour of a Spring bear hunt at all. However if one must proceed, it cannot affect young cubs who are still so reliant on their Mothers. Please consider postponing the start of the planned hunt by at least 30 days. It does no one any good to have orphaned cubs foraging and starving.

Please do not make the black bear spring hunt a permanent event. At the very least, do not begin the season until June. An earlier season risks orphaning more cubs as females are killed off.

I submit that the phrase Spring Bear hunt is a misnomer. It would better be described as a Spring Bear Slaughter. another form of human caused ecocide.

This could result in more cubs being orphaned, upsetting ecosystems, creating wildlife conflict and putting people at risk, too. Please take care of our natural habitat, the earth is becoming empty and dry. We, as people, are killing too many animals and destroing natural resources. It must stop.
I am disgusted with your proposed spring bear hunt! Bears have as much right to live as anyone else! Don't bother telling me that the bear population is healthy because that is not an excuse to kill them!!
In this day and age the need to hunt these creatures is a barbaric trait in man that can only enhance his anger towards Mother Earth. As an indigenous member of this country you need to understand these creatures are our ancestors and need our protection.
I think the spring bear hunt should be available for all of Ontario. Since it was cancelled I have noticed bears now in suburban areas of Ottawa where they never were before. Hunting is the best way to manage the population.
Hello, I'm strongly against the proposed spring black bear hunting season.
Here are my reasons.
- Females with cubs must be protected; currently that is difficult as cubs are frequently treed or kept away by their mother while she forages.

The spring bear hunt puts mother bears and cubs at risk and it disrupts the local environment. The priority and focus should always be on coexistence with wildlife, not killing it for sport (no matter how profitable to the province) or so-called wildlife management.

pretty sure there has to be a better way of coexisting with wildlife besides allowing yahoos to blam away at them. Maybe put some of you vastly overpaid colleagues to work finding a more humane way of dealing with bears. If it's just a case of human/bear interactions, consider a cull on humans.
