limiting the number of people that can hunt on a tag will negatively impact larger long established hunt camps as well as have a negative impact on the industry. Camps that have over the years added members to increase their likelihood of getting a tag would then have to reduce their numbers.

I am pleased that we are looking into the moose issues, although this year we (our group) did not receive a tag in our WMU 13 as we normally do or in our second area of 15b.

My concerns for the new tag proposals are the cow/calf tag if you are in a group most are going to shoot the bigger animal being the cow leaving the calf to fend for itself more than likely to die.

As for the point system I cannot support. This will bring hunters back into the draw system that have either quit applying or have been applying in units that have no tags for many years.

End the calf hunt completely
Establish and protect moose refuge areas
Commit more resources for enforcement, monitoring and research
Change the composition of BGMAC to be more representative of all Ontarians
Please increase moose protections by ending the calf hunt completely and by establishing more protected habitat.
Babies should not be killed, this is horrible and appalling. Mother and baby should be protected and allowed to live and thrive in peace.

My recommendations are:
• End the calf hunt completely
• Establish and protect moose refuge areas
• Commit more resources for enforcement, monitoring and research
• Change the composition of BGMAC to be more representative of all Ontarians
Thank you
the BGMAC- Big Game Management Advisory Committee that came up with the recommendations - is exclusively made up of hunters and outfitters and does not represent the diversity of Ontarian s concerned about moose.

While this is a move in the right direction, it doesn't go far enough and additional moose protection measures MUST BE considered.
I recommend:
• End the calf hunt. Research is confirming that hunting calves puts additional stress on the moose population. It is time to phase it out.

Please listen to the confirmation experts not the playboy sports guys.
The first people really know what they're talking about. (When you're sick, you go to a doctor not a rap artist.)
It is essential that Ontario protect this magnificent species. The following should be addressed:
End the calf hunt completely
Establish and protect moose refuge areas
Commit more resources for enforcement, monitoring and research

It is troubling to see that BGMAC and the MNRF are proposing extending the calf hunt. More emphasis should be placed on protecting calves so they become adult moose. They are already facing predation by other adult predators, they don't need to be hunted by humans.

Time to protect this majestic animal. I come from a long line of hunters who all agree that we want to protect the species for generations to come.
Let’s act BEFORE it’s too late.
Here are my comments on proposed changes to the Ontario Moose Hunting Regulations:
— End the calf hunt completely
— Establish and protect moose refuge areas
— Commit more resources for enforcement, monitoring and research

The pool of stakeholders is not inclusive enough if only male hunters are represented. Due to the climate crisis, and general over-development, all wildlife is at risk of rapidly diminishing numbers.
