I have been recently made aware of the changes to regulations coming into effect soon. I find it reprehensible that the composition of BGMAC is slanted towards male hunters and does not take into account the wishes of all Ontarions.

Dear MNRF,
The Ontario moose population is falling fast. In other provinces moose numbers a dwindling too -- mainland Nova Scotia, for example, has practically none left.

We need to get these kinds of policies right. We've lost too many of our wildlife species. I support the following measures, which need to become part of Ontario wildlife policy:
End the moose calf hunt completely
Establish and protect moose refuge areas

The promotion of moose calf hunting is against wildlife conservation measures that aim to protect the biodiversity of our natural habitats. The ministry should be cutting back on issuing tags instead. Moose are a very important part of natural ecosystems.
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
ERO 019-0405
The proposed changes to moose management as part of the Moose Management Review does not go far enough. The proposed changes should include :
1) ending the calf hunt completely;
2) should establish and monitor/protect moose refuge areas;

I believe that there should be a better representation of all Ontarians on the BGMAC and not just have hunters and outfitters on the committee.
I think there should be an end to calf hunting and more lands set aside for and protection of the moose populations.

While this is a good start, please end calf hunting completely. This selfish practice needs to end and can only be done so by banning it. Please establish and protect moose refuge areas and commit more resources for enforcement, monitoring and research.

I am not Aboriginal but believe their association with the environment and living creatures is what the world has forgotten. All life should be honoured and protected. It would be wise for us to follow this wisdom when considering the future of the moose population.
Like many other Ontario residents, I have a great deal of respect for our amazing wildlife. Ontario's moose represent an important part of our natural world, and they deserve protections which will actually protect them.

Hello,
I am writing with several concerns about the Moose Management Review. I believe that the following should points should be made by the review:
End the calf hunt completely
Establish and protect moose refuge areas

- 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
As an Ontario resident who enjoys the outdoors and uses Ontario parks and green spaces, we must protect our native species. The Moose is one such species.
The hunting of calves must be banned. No population can increase if the very young are sought out and killed.
A fulsome review of moose management and hunting is a long time coming and I commend the Minister and MNRF staff for conducting widespread consultation on the topic. Moose hunters are creatures of habit and this is a wholesale change to the very structure of moose hunting.

END the calf hunt !!!
Set up and protect refuge areas for moose.
Have the BGMAC have more people who are NOT hunters and who don't profit from hunting.
Enforce regulations and do scientific research on reasons for moose decline. Don't blame wolves and coyotes.
