In the spring hunt, slow-moving mother bears who have just emerged from hibernation are easily targeted often leaving orphan cubs as collateral damage. Please dont let our bears be hunted.
Please preserve the black bear. We’ve done enough and continue to ruin our environment. Encroaching on areas that should otherwise be preserved and protected. Our need to constantly take instead of give or live in harmony with our environment is heart breaking. STOP the madness!
An outright ban is the only acceptable option. Murdering mother bears leaving their cubs to fend for themselves and often die alone. Where is the humanity in that? Why is it all about dollars and cents? Ban the hunt entirely.
I would just like everyone to know. These bears are not encroaching on our areas we have encroached on their living areas. These bears are not a danger if we would stop destroying the homes they live in. Please do not start a bear hunt again. The populations are finally growing because of the ban.
This practice is barbaric and needs to be banned. You're killing mother bears while they're vulnerable ( just waking up from hibernation) leaving behind new cubs to fend for themselves.

I am opposed to any additional “legalized” bear hunts.
As it is, bears are taken illegally, so why give the hunters extra time to kill more.
I also am not happy when I hear people talking of baiting bears with donuts and sit and wait for the bears to come to feed, then shoot.

NO NO NO NO NO NO NO Can we finally STOP being barBEARians! Jeezuz how does any warm hearted person condone this murder of our innocent animals, we humans suck!
I am completely against hunting of any animal, any time, for any reason. We are not gods to decide who is to live or die. That people "enjoy" killing innocent and defenceless animals is a moral and ethical fault in character and should not be granted the legitimacy of legislated approval.
I don't like the idea of a spring black bear hunt because of the bears with babies. They are at a tender age and have been in hibernation. If you say it is only for the males please explain to me how you can tell the difference from a distance away.
So that is my opinion for no spring hunt

I am for the complète prohibition of hunting and trapping a bear population in decline. The animal welfare shouldn’t have to submit to economical considerations. It is our duty and the least we can do. We are witnessing a massive animal extinction on this planet.

This disgusting hunt needs to stay banned!! You are sentencing these beautiful animals to certain death and when someone makes a mistake and kills a mother her cubs suffer and die as well! How awful!!!

No way should you be killing black bears especially when mothers have their little ones. Live where they are and have no problems with them. You just don’t feed them. Take a look around animals that were common are beginning to disappear. Not a big fan of hunting some of these people are gun happy.

NEEDS TO STAY BANNED!! Mother bears may be accidentally shot, leaving orphaned cubs.
Also too many selfish stupid people who would use this as an excuse for trophy hunting and overkill
Do not bring this barbaric law out of hibernation!
Bears deserve a place on this planet as much as we do, maybe if we stopped shredding their forests we could all co-exist!
