It isn't bears who are a problem....it is humans. Stop humans from propagating and leave animals alone. They don't pollute, litter, destroy or murder. Humans are the ONLY vermin on this planet.
I stand in strong opposition with the spring bear hunt and have consulted the experts. In addition to the following which has not been addressed appropriately, there is a massive extinction of many living things, much of which is caused by human interference.

I say no to the bear hunt in the spring as the bears are just coming out of hibernation, and females will be having cubs. Nope just not right. Wait till fall to do this hunt ( which I think is totally unnecessary anyways ) but as usual the government won’t listen and do it anyway
I can not support the spring bear hunt for several reasons. We should be a leading country in eco-tourism with our beautiful and vast wilderness - environmental conservation and eco-tourism go hand in hand - environmental conservation and hunting for sport do not.

I do not agree - we need to be protecting our wildlife not targeting vulnerable animals post hibernation - we are already pushing them further away and should be ensuring they thrive not hunting them.
What is your scientific evidence to support your assertion that the black bear population is healthy?? You do not even have an inventory for bears so you can’t make this assertion. How can we properly assess this proposal without such information??

This proposal should be in consultation with the First Nations of the areas firstly, and it should consider the impact to the predators below the black bears, since it might create an incorrect assumption, at some point that perhaps wolves would begin to increase in numbers and they prey on the othe

Instead of hunting and killing black bears, please amend regulations to PROTECT and CONSERVE them!
Implement regulations on human overpopulation which is the sole cause of wildlife habitat loss.
As a former bear hunter and bear hunting guide in the province of Alberta I am 100 percent Against re opening of the spring bear hunt. I have witnessed on far too many occasions when mother bears ended up being shot and killed leaving the the young spring cubs orphaned to die a slow death.

As an Ontario resident, I urge the Ontario government to halt the Spring bear hunt. The Spring bear hunt was previously cancelled because of issues with killing mother bears and leaving orphan cubs. Baiting in the Spring exacerbates this.

I fully support the changes being made to the black bear hunting seasons. I very strongly support the changes being made on the Bruce Peninsula to protect this population of bears.

I am strongly opposed to Ontario government's idea to permanently bring back the spring bear hunt. To make such a move simply to benefit hunters is irresponsible and unfair.

I am totally against any permission for a spring bear hunt in the province of Ontario. Spring is the time when mother bears come out of their dens with brand new babies. If the mother is killed the babies will die too for lack of care. This is extremely cruel and must be eliminated.
