I am writing this comment to share my thoughts about the Spring Bear Hunt. I am so disappointed that the province wants to continue with this hunt. The only way to stop human bear conflict is to ensure people remove access to garbage, barbeques, bird feeders and other attractants for the bears. Read more

Please do not bring back the spring bear hunt. It is a barbaric and irresponsible activity. - Baby bears are orphaned, - It does not improve human safety - Bears have low reproduction rates - and the survival of adult females is vital for the species Read more
