"The harvest of bear cubs and female bears accompanied by a cub would remain prohibited." Those opposed to the Spring bear hunt need to know how enforcement will change. That fact remains that during the years this 'ban' has been in effect, there have been far too many orphaned cubs regardless. Read more
