It is irresponsible, unethical, absolutely unnecessary and cruel to make an annual spring black bear hunting season permanent, one of the reasons being that Hunters often can’t tell the difference between a male and female black bear, and therefore there is a high risk of killing a mother bear durin Read more

I urge the Ontario government to cancel the province's Spring Bear Hunt completely There was no legitimate rationale for partial reinstatement of the spring bear hunt by the previous government and there is none now. Please, do not follow through with this misguided plan. Read more

It would be better if you paid attention to the science behind the ban rather than pandering to a few individuals who prefer a dead bear to a live bear. In BC we are moving toward a more humane and modern approach to wildlife. A dead bear satisfies one person, who has a desire to kill. Read more

Despite the fact that there is a ban on hunting female black bears and cubs in Ontario, given that most cubs are born in the spring and that many hunters will not know the difference between a male and female bear, I would like to see a permanent ban on the spring bear hunt.

We do not support a black bear hunt at anytime especially during a spring season when sows and their cubs are put in additional danger. We implore you to vote against this proposal as it is unethical. Wildlife is not here for our exploitation and needs to be protected.

I most certainly oppose this hunt. First of all, mother bears are killed leaving behind their cubs, who in turn will die. Please explain to me the need to hunt these beautiful creatures.Is it because they are coming into human contact. Maybe we should not be over building on their land. Read more

I find it hard to believe that we are considering a spring bear hunt again. This is unnecessary and given the difficulty hunters have sexing the bears before killing them (or the unwillingness to bother) this put newborn cubs at risk as mothers are often killed. Read more
