Please cancel the Spring bear hunt. The hunt has a devastating impact on cub mortality and biodiversity; mothers and cubs separated, for no reason but to kill. Not to mention the impacts on RESCUE organizations that care for orphaned cubs. This is a cycle that needs to end.

Although I personally am not a bear hunter, I support your proposals which are fair and balanced and understand that the funds received from hunters goes directly towards management of wildlife and wild lands in Ontario. Thank you.
It's not acceptable to bring back the spring bear hunt. This means a death sentence for orphaned cubs and there is no justification to privilege hunters only in this province. We already have hunters killing bears during the fall hunt season.

To Whom It May Concern:
Your proposal for a spring bear hunt is not only unsporting, but inhumane.
How can you tolerate a person shooting a sleeping bear? Or, shooting a mother bear leaving innocent, unweaned cubs?
This is not ethical behavior in my estimation. Please reconsider.
Thank you.
I completely oppose the spring bear hunt. I’m incredibly disappointed in Ontario for re-considering this since it is clearly fuelled by economic reasons. Bear cubs will be orphaned as a result and bears don’t need to die so you can make money.

Should not have a spring bear hunt anywhere in Ontario. Let's not wipe out our wildlife. I am a hunter who lives in rural Ontario and have noticed a decline of sightings of bear.
I am vehemently against the Spring Bear Hunt. There are many other humane ways to live with wildlife. Many cubs will die slowly of starvation, waiting for their loving parent to return. Please do not allow this hunt to happen....respectfully, a caring human being.
