Please do not kill the black bears. Their population is declining. It is especially cruel to bait and kill a bear coming out of hibernation. It probably has cubs in its den that would be left to starve.
Can we not just appreciate these animals for their inherent value? And as for thinning them out to reduce potential human-bear conflicts, people need to start managing themselves accordingly, rather than managing wildlife, if they are going to choose to live in rural communities.
As a mother and grandmother, I believe it is our duty to protect and preserve wildlife as precious natural resources for, not just our own children, but all future generations.

Please stop the hunt we have lost enough animals protect your planet what are you going to show to your children and grandchildren. Don’t be a killer save animals
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.

In an era of decimation of wild life, no excuse for the cruelty of this proposal; why , as humans, do we have to lord it over natureès creatures, especially the cubs who are left to starve; after losing billion of animals in Australia recently, this is terrible; I wont be voting for this government

Bears, like all wildlife, need our compassion and protection. It’s unacceptable that the government is supporting the cruel and needless trophy hunting of bears.

I urge the Ontario government to cancel the province's Spring Bear Hunt completely There was no legitimate rationale for partial reinstatement of the spring bear hunt by the previous government and there is none now. Please, do not follow through with this misguided plan.

Hunting of any creature is just wrong. There is no justification for it - ever. You don't need scientific arguments, economic reasons, or any other discussions. You just need the compassion and sense to see that it is wrong.

I am absolutely STUNNED that the Canadian Gov’t would allow trophy hunting of bear (or any animal for that matter). Seriously shocked and disgusted. Why on earth would you cater to trophy hunting tourism when our country has so much more to offer.
