Don't worry, I'm very familiar with the MNO website. Fact is, there are only 1450 harvester cards issued in Ontario. Not "tens of thousands" as you mistakenly suggest.

Jben,
I think conservation mistakes made by appealing to folks whom base decisions on emotions rather than science and facts are another contributing force. (Cancellation of the spring bear hunt)

The cancellation of the Spring Bear Hunt was politically motivated and carried out by Mike Harris. To simply save a few contested seats,funny enough even although it was wrong and probably illegal the supporters of his party sat by quietly and let this one slip by to the detriment of all us hunters.We now have another party who are currying favor by bringing back the hunt.This ping,pong ball
approach used on us by politicians needs to stop.
Another thumbs up for the OFAH to run the show.
I agree on that Gilroy, but was trying to stay as non-partisan as possible with respect to this.

So you want me to do your homework for you? Ok. Go to the MNO site you so graciously provided and click on "Registry". In the drop down menu, click on "Harvesting". Now read it? Granted, it is a little out of date, but the number is now 1450, as opposed to 1250. If you really want confirmation, why not call the 800 number?
When you've done all this, you should come back on here and apologise to everyone for spewing the mis-information you seem so keen on. Have at er!
Appears everyone who is against first nation hunters is quick to spew misinformation, when in fact the information is usually generally readily available. Such as with the argument posted earlier in the thread that every first nation hunter receives a tag of some sort... WRONG. First nations hunting numbers are secret... WRONG. Etc...
I agree with you Bushmoose I wish people took the time to fully research the matter prior to posting. In case anyone was wondering here are the links to the harvesting pages for 3 of the largest first nations groups from Eastern Ontario. Amount of tag numbers per WMU and even the tag holders names all in plain view for the world to see. These three combined for a total of 23 adult moose tags out of the available 32 to the ten first nations groups within the Algonquins of Ontario in WMU 48 (the WMU I hunt). According to the regulations there were 45 non first nations adult tags available.

The Algonquin 2014-2015 harvesting results which show that out of 305 tags issued for that harvesting season only 164 moose were harvested by Algonquins accross .

Agree Big Turk, that to plays a part.
But if we consider the biggest threats and "killers" of wildlife, its people. People who live in cities whose appetites for things,for big homes, for many vehicles, cottages that are more home, than cottage super centres and huge malls, miles and miles and miles of paved roads and on and on and on and on. Then over and above that, look at the garbage and pollution, generated by cities and those with in them.
And usually its hunting, that gets singled out.
