I don't see why this is acceptable. This isn't bear hunting, it's gunning down bears. In 1999 these "hunts" were banned because mother bears were killed leaving cubs alone to die. What has changed since then? Please don't regress to that time. Read more

I remember when the spring bear hunt w as abolished. It was one of the more progressive moves by an Ontario government. There is no scientific or other basis to reimplement this hunt, other than lobbying by a special interest group. Read more

As an Ontarian, I am deeply opposed to permanently bring back the spring bear hunt. Hunting bears doesn’t improve human safety. Stopping human-bear conflict is achieved by removing access to garbage, barbeques, and other attractants. Read more

I urge Ontario legislators to cancel the Spring Bear Hunt completely, and to not expand the pilot project instituted by previous Liberal governments. Please, do not follow the misguided plan laid out by previous governments led by another party. Read more

Please suspend the spring bear hunt for ever as it is unnecessary, not in keeping with science and utterly inhumane as it leaves bear cubs to starve. It is horrible to let any being die like that and for what: for the lust to kill. Read more

i never understood why the hunt was ever opened in the spring...the cubs loose their mother and are left to starve to death...the cubs are not always close to their mother...i understand that we need population control but the spring hunt should not be an option...

As an owner and operator of Cobb Bay Lodge Inc. I would like to voice my support for extending the spring bear hunt, forbidding bear cub and sow with cub harvest, and requiring individuals to have a license to provide bear hunting services in order to guide. Read more
