Why do we need to hunt calf’s? We are trying to increase the population and manage it. If the population is low then we should think about the next generation of moose. I agree the wolf/coyote population as well as bear do not help the calf population but we are not helping it either. Read more

I was going to suggest golng back to every other year moose hunt in southern area, you know when there was lots of moose and tags available. But if you dont hand out a calf tag with a moose licence it may accomplish the same thing.

There needs a way to transfer a tag obviously due to medical reasons but also occupation change. We had a circumstance where one of our members chaanged jobs in Sept. His new job did not allow holidays right away and fortunately we were able to transfer within our group. Read more

For all of you hunters out there that are skeptical about the new proposal you have to look at it with a positive attitude. Guys and gals the status quo was just not working. The status quo was depleting our moose population and destroying the future of moose hunting. Read more

Preference for moose tags should be given to residents who actually reside near or in the WMU they are applying for. I live in Northern Ontario for the love of the outdoors yet have to compete in a lottery against people province wide. Read more

As close to perfect as you can get IF ENACTED AS DESCRIBED. The real key will be setting the HARVEST QUOTAS. Too much emphasis has been placed on tags and keeping hunters and outfitters happy at the expense of the resource and interests of the non-hunting public. Read more

I have not found evidence that the ministry includes in their statistics the total number of moose harvested by native hunters. Therefore, all rationalisation from the ministry regarding how they decide how many tags are allocated to each designated area is total nonsense! Read more

I like the fact that changes are being made to make the tag process more fair. I believe Ontario should look at how other provinces manage their moose populations. As I believe in Quebec but not 100% positive they alternate year to year between bulls & cows. Read more

I am very glad to see that there will be more archery tags the point system seems allright. My big concern is if my hunting partners or myself do not have a tag , to my understanding we will not be able to hunt Moose that year. That for me would be a big dissapointment,it is one of my passion. Read more

I think these changes are a breath of fresh air. They are vastly improved. Keep talking to biologists, outfitters, farmers and hunters. People with boots in the field often have solutions to issues with wildlife. Read more
