While I agree with increasing bow hunting in the south to match areas allowed for gun hunting I do not agree with the reduced 5 to 3 km communication radius. In Southern Ontario cell phone coverage is good and there is no issues in communicating with members within the group.

Group Hunting: Since the changes in group applications began the onus of the "MNR" was to satisfy as many moose hunters as possible. In 2018, 53% of group hunters were successful whereby individuals were only successful 11% of the time.

Stop hunting cow and calf moose for the next 10 year so that the moose herd will increase in size.
If harvesting cow and calf moose continues, Ontario will never have a robust and healthy herd that is sustainable.
This would be an amazing change for moose hunters in Ontario, for far too long we have applied for tags in a broken system. In our current system seems that certain people are "favoured" and get a tag every 2 to 3 years while others like my father go 23 years without a tag.

Well you did it again. The 2019 regs said large groups would be honoured and you axed it. We had 15 legitimate hunters on a cow tag but you didn't do the group thing as promised. Not believable are you. So why believe anything you say. A neighbouring group with 11 were successful.

I don't think that removing the calf hunting season is the solution. Very few calves alone are killed during the moose hunting season. Most calves that do end up being killed were with their mother which was also killed.

I really like the changes to the adult moose tag system. I am just getting back into moose hunting after about a 25 year hiatus and this is because there are very few deer left in WMU 47. Do something to help the deer herd next. Like fewer adult tags or shorter season for archery?
this all sound good to me but you need to aligate more archery tags for areas that tags have been taken away and given to the gun hunters like in 21a it seems like we lose tags every year and the gun hunters get tags added to them archery and gun hunters should be aloud to get the same chance to get

My comment or question is for the “Proposed for 2020, Calf harvest controls”.
i am a little confused about how extending the calf season in these five WMU in 2020 for the full adult season is going to be good for moose populations?

Why limit group sizes for party hunting moose to 10? It doesn’t have a great affect on animal numbers as you’re still limited by available tags.

I have hunted moose in area 42 for 50 years. Nothing is going to change until you control the people that deem they don't need a tag. I have heard rumors of 5 moose killed in one night or 19 killed in a new clear cut in January. That's what upsets me the most.

I believe changes are certainly overdue to the tag allocation system in Ontario. However please consider tag allocation a priority to group hunters and not individual hunters.

The new regulations are a step in the right direction, but the ministry has to control the native harvest, which I know for fact is depleted the moose population in WMA 41.

Does not sound like the allocation of tags will be any less complicated than the present system. A better system would have been the same as Quebec,s. I do not believe a proper moose count has been conducted in numerous years. In my WMU (41) moose have pushed out the deer.
