Not unexpected, but still a very sad practice and bad for bears and other species of wildlife in the spring. The Spring Bear Hunt will resume in full force in Ontario, beginning May 1, 2016. The spring hunt will end June 15, the fall bear hunt will begin August 15 and run till the end of November in Northern Ontario. Not much reprieve for bears or for people who enjoy nature, the wilderness, camping and canoeing.
