The Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters says a major safety issue
has come back 6-years after politics killed the spring bear hunt.
Spokesperson Robert Pye says bears are expanding their range into
parts of Southern Ontario with recent scares in Newmarket and Peterborough.
n024 runs: 23 sec. out…the province.
Pye says Government stats show a 500% jump in nuisance bears
since the cancellation of the hunt.
