The President of a Bear Sanctuary in Ontario believes bringing back the spring bear hunt isn’t the right way to control the nuisance bear population.
The province has unveiled a make-shift spring bear hunt in parts of northern Ontario.
Mike McIntosh is with “Bear With Us” and he says the reason we are seeing so many bears is that people are still feeding them.
McIntosh says the spring hunt used to target young males, who aren’t even at a reproductive age.
He adds the only thing the hunt does is orphan young cubs.
McIntosh stresses there’s no science or common sense involved in a call for the return of the spring bear hunt.
