I am totally against the cruel and needless trophy hunting of bears. Apart from the fact that I don't understand the wish to kill for the "fun" of it -- I don't agree with the way this is done.

The government has disclosed a need to reduce black bear hunting in Saugeen-Bruce Peninsula due to population concerns, yet it is simultaneously proposing to allow the hunting and trapping of these bears in that region for one week each spring. This is irresponsible.

Please put a complete end to bear hunting in Ontario. Bear hunting is unnecessary and horribly cruel, often leaving defenceless bear cubs orphaned and unable to care for themselves. This results in their death.

•Bear cubs will continue to be orphaned if the hunt becomes permanent. While it’s currently against the law to kill cubs and mother bears accompanied by cubs, mother bears often leave their cubs in trees when searching for food.

The spring bear hunt is not necessary. If the province managed this matter properly, one hunt a year, in the fall, is enough.
Ther are too many irresponsible hunters that will not wait long enough before shooting a bear, to see if there are cubs, and maybe even then, would shoot anyway.

I would like to disagree with the proposed plan for open hunt of Black bears! Bears, as members of the wild life, need our protection and rehabilitation, not be gunned down in the spring after months of hibernation.

Is the Canadian government aware of how far down the list of countries which respect animal rights Canada is? In this regard I ashamed to call myself Canadian. We are embarrassing low on that list. As a forward thinking modern country of moral values, this is disgusting.

murder is murder no matter who the victim is in the last time I checked murder was illegal so please stop the unnecessary murdering of innocent animals and mammals it's a disgusting and heinous act.
I am strongly opposed to the spring black bear hunt. I used to volunteer at a wildlife rehab centre outside of Huntsville and have seen firsthand the effect of a spring bear hunt. When the spring bear hunt was in place, there would be 30 - 45 orphaned cubs brought in.

There is no evidence that the spring bear hunt improves human safety. Advocates for the hunt often argue it will reduce human-bear conflict, but time and again studies have shown that the spring bear hunt does not improve human safety.

I am very much against bringing back the bear hunt. All the same reasons that applied to stopping it in the first place still apply, I am so concerned that we are prepared to ignore those at this point and re-open the hunt.
