Hello,
I believe we have an obligation to protect wildlife from hunting. The proposal to hunt black bears will lead to orphaned cubs and using killing animals as a way to encourage tourism is highly unethical.
We are proposing to implement a regular spring black bear season, shorten the Bruce Peninsula black bear hunting season, and make other minor updates to black bear regulations.
ERO #019-1112
Don't not allow a spring bear hunt. Killing the females, means the cubs die also. Only a short sighted government would even think of bringing back a spring hunt.

We do need to take more action to address the declining bear population. I would like to see no hunting or trapping allowed at all to give these areas time to recover.

Black bears are remarkable and beautiful creatures. Just their intelligence alone is sound justification to impose an outright ban on the annual government sanctioned slaughter.

No Bear hunting please. These majestic creatures need protection, and humane management. If we continue to decimate the natural world, we will tip nature’s balance before we realize it, and the consequences will affect every living creature, including mankind. Thank you
I don’t agree with the proposal to change black bear hunting regulations to add Spring hunts it is ridiculous, the mama bears with cubs are coming out of hibernation and hungry...perfect for hunters to bait (which isn’t really hunting if you leave food out and sit up in a damn tree overhead waiting

I believe black bears and their environment need to be protected. We need to educate communities to live with these creatures and give them the space and respect they deserve. They are not here for our entertainment or tourism needs but have an inalienable right to life.

1. The fact that the Ministry is trying implement this on a permanent basis defeats everything we stand for in the protection of animals. PLEASE DO NOT ALLOW THIS TO HAPPEN. People don't follow the rules and the ministry does NOT have resources to enforce them.

Please do not bring back a regular hunting season for bears. This is inhumane, and leaves young bears orphaned. Leave these sentient beings, who are just trying to live freely, alone.
The Ontario government wants to permanently bring back the spring bear hunt to benefit hunters and the tourism industry, even if it means a death sentence for orphaned cubs. Why would any responsible government want to exploit their wildlife in order to make hunters happy.

If it was up to me there would be no bear hunt.. seriously, are the bears fighting for territory, are they endangered and there should be NO killing in their den while they are sleeping...only adult males and no females with cubs because that would be killing two..
